John Phillips Ashley began his professional career as a designer & illustrator; these skills combined with his innovative approach laid the foundation for the array of painting styles, wildlife realism to expressionism and abstract works. He feels the subject often dictates the style, or theme of the art . He is equally at ease painting wild Mustangs, or his large expressionistic Sky paintings. Many of his paintings are available as Gileec’ prints. As a sculptor he is known for the dyed & polished metal sculpture called Metalscapes. The sculpture range in size and subject. The sculptures are smooth minimal, or free formed Repousse’, to large modular abstract, or pictorial works. The paintings and sculpture are well suited for home, or corporate settings.
