Introduce yourself<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hi! I\u2019m an urban artist working under the pseudonym Johnman and paint both outdoor murals and smaller scale gallery artworks. I\u2019m from England originally but now live in Dublin with my wife and young son.\u00a0 Like most urban artists I like to keep my identity a closely guarded secret, yet it is widely speculated that I may,\u00a0in fact, be a man named John.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Johnman<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

How did you get into art?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve always enjoyed art and in my teens, if I wasn\u2019t playing the guitar I was either painting or drawing.\u00a0 Then in my twenties being a \u201cgrown-up\u201d just kind of got in the way. In my thirties, I moved into a new flat with lots of wall space.\u00a0 Once I\u2019d finished furnishing it, I desperately wanted to adorn the walls with artwork but the only money I had left would stretch no further than a couple of blank canvases and a few cans of spray paint.\u00a0 I fell instantly back in love with painting again and was both delighted and proud of my end results. Soon afterwards I met fellow artist Mos Shaw of Arts Anonymous, who not only gave me the opportunity to exhibit my work but really fuelled my confidence to do so and pursue my artwork further.<\/p>\n

Tell us about the area of art you specialise in <\/strong><\/p>\n

I work predominantly with transparent spray paint, applied over colourful backgrounds with hand cut stencils which are then finished with the fluid application of acrylic ink. I\u2019m best known for painting on train tickets, collaged together as a canvas.\u00a0 This idea was originally inspired by the historical roots of graffiti being painted on train carriages.\u00a0 I also love the way that each ticket represents a journey that has it\u2019s own untold story and take inspiration from this in my subject matter.\u00a0 I\u2019m a true romantic at heart, which is often reflected in my work, depicting couples on their own journey, symbolised by railway tracks but with the steel box of the train carriage stripped away.<\/p>\n

\"Sprayed<\/p>\n

When I paint murals I enjoy using a myriad of colours, tagging the wall again and again until it\u2019s completely covered in paint. This then forms the background, which I work on with the same style and technique, just scaled up.\u00a0 Again, I use hand-cut stencils that can take weeks to cut.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I\u2019m currently working on a series of artwork produced using, cut, flattened, engraved and painted Guinness cans which all start with a pint of the black stuff! Cheers!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What is it that you enjoy about art? <\/strong><\/p>\n

There are so many things.\u00a0 One is escapism. At every step of the process; from sketching out the concept, cutting the stencils, working with the spray cans and doodling with acrylic ink, I get completely absorbed in my work and any of life\u2019s stresses are gone.\u00a0 I also get a sense of relief with the creation of some works. I\u2019ll often get an idea brewing in my mind, which builds to a creative itch that just has to be scratched.\u00a0 There\u2019s just an indescribable buzz when your creative idea is finally brought to life and the anticipation of being able to share it with others.<\/p>\n

Showing my artwork to other people brings me the greatest joy, especially when they\u2019re enthusiastic about it or even wish to adorn their own walls with it.\u00a0 But I\u2019ve grown to respect you can\u2019t please everyone and take pride no matter what.\u00a0 I once painted a mural in Exeter (with the permission of the City Council) and after many pleasant and complimentary exchanges with numerous passers-by, I saw an elderly lady approaching; sour-faced, hunched over and wheeling one of those trollies behind her. She went into a mad rant telling me she was disgusted, it was a disgrace, an eyesore and I should be arrested.\u00a0 As she was approaching I\u2019d guessed she wasn\u2019t the type who was going to appreciate my art but her utter disdain for it really entertained and enthralled me.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Tell us about one of your projects\/your work<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve just completed a piece entitled \u201cNetwork Glitch\u201d.\u00a0 It was one of those creative itches I spoke of earlier.\u00a0 Since the start of the year I\u2019ve been preparing for an art fair and despite knowing this piece wouldn\u2019t feature, I was so inspired I had to down tools on all other projects as this was all I could focus on.<\/p>\n

I\u2019d happened upon the work of Kit King. I could enthuse about her work for hours but in a line; she paints hyperrealism with oils and then slices her canvas into strips to create works of surrealism.\u00a0 It was this aspect of her work and the sheer bravery of it that I felt compelled to incorporate into a piece of my own.<\/p>\n

I\u2019d been kindly gifted a huge ensemble of international train tickets by various people over the years and I was never quite sure what I would do with them but suddenly this idea exploded in my mind.\u00a0 A vision adrift of what I\u00a0do normally. Much larger, much bolder but still definably me. The more I pondered it, the more reasons not to progress with it entered my head and doubt began to creep in: Would it be too big? It would be too expensive to produce! Where would I exhibit it? How would I get it there? Would it be any good? Would I end up spending a load of time and money on something that simply didn\u2019t work?<\/p>\n

I took a moment to share my concerns with my wife. She\u2019s an economist and I was confident she\u2019d help in having this crazy idea knocked quickly out of my head. \u201cYou\u2019re worried about spending weeks of your time investing, energy, money and emotions into a project that might not work? Isn\u2019t that what being an artist is all about?\u201d<\/p>\n

She\u2019d hit the nail on the head and I set to work realising my vision.\u00a0 A key component was to be a rather large, custom made, box frame.\u00a0 As usual, I put my dimensions into the Picture Frames Express designer but this time I got an error message.\u00a0 My dimensions were too large! I contacted the help desk and Suzanne was kindly able to quote for my requirements (and requote and requote and requote as I kept tweaking the final design. Sorry Suzanne!)<\/p>\n

The end result is \u201cNetwork Glitch\u201d. Spray paint and acrylic ink on rail tickets from around the world; float mounted at various heights in a large box frame.\u00a0 The piece has rail tickets from Ireland, Britain (both historic and modern), Holland, Italy, America, Australia, Singapore, Norway, Italy, Germany, France and Hong Kong and uses Hannah Chledowski photographed by\u00a0Atikh Bana as its reference material.<\/p>\n

The artwork also incorporates my first use of Molotow\u2019s Liquid Chrome, which really makes the jewellery elements of the piece ping when the light catches them.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n

If you could offer one piece of advice to aspiring artists, what would it be? <\/strong><\/p>\n

Have confidence in yourself, push yourself and try new things.\u00a0 If something you try doesn\u2019t work, that doesn\u2019t mean it can\u2019t work. Try again!<\/p>\n

My own mantra for this year is to make my own luck! Last year I found myself stuck in a bit of a creative block.\u00a0 I was looking at other artists, envious of how lucky they were with the opportunities they\u2019d had.\u00a0 It dawned on me that to consider them lucky was an injustice.\u00a0 The opportunities they\u2019d been presented with had arisen through their own hard work and dogged determination to be successful.<\/p>\n

What are your goals for this year?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I think they can be best summarised as simply becoming a better artist! Not settling for any compromises in the quality of my work, experimenting with new ideas and techniques and hopefully in doing so I\u2019ll broaden my appeal and allow my artwork to continue opening up new opportunities for me.<\/p>\n

Where can we see your work?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cNetwork Glitch\u201d is currently on its way to Reload Gallery in Leamington Spa, to be exhibited alongside some of my other train ticket work. https:\/\/www.reloadgallery.com\/collections\/johnman<\/a><\/p>\n
