Welcome to my website
My name is John Piper ( yes the same name as the rather more famous JP so apologies if you have arrived here by mistake) I have been an artist for over 40 years, turning professional in 2015, covering all genres of art including Watercolours, Acrylics, Oils, Pastels, Pencil as well as hand stone carving.
Based in Bideford "The Little White Town" in beautiful North Devon I specialise in watercolours covering all styles and subjects, I paint with and teach watercolours, Acrylics, Oils, Pastels and simple pencil sketching.
I am an accomplished stone sculptor and pride myself by using only hand tools and scrap stone to protect the environment.
I was "Artist in Residence" for the National Trust at Bucks Mills Cabin in August 2019 and will be in resident again in June 2020 & 2021.
I have many private commissions for a multitude of mediums and subject matter.
I have exhibited regularly in prestigious exhibitions such as the RHS open at Rosemoor, I have been commissioned by West Berkshire council to host Watercolour courses. I also host courses for the Plough Arts centre at st Anne's chapel in Barnstaple
I offer courses and beginners lessons in watercolours and most other mediums and teach at group level for local art groups and social groups.
I also create artwork and murals in many mediums and accept commissions for almost any size shape or position.
**NEW** I now take commissions for paintings of Classic/Modern/ Street/Racing Cars and Motorcycles
