John Lintott’s love for the outdoors began as a child and has grown exponentially as a plein air painter. “Painting in the outdoors allows me to encapsulate the love I have for what I have come to take in, and translate that love into something believable, convincing and emotional. To view the beauty of the world around me and communicate my impression of the experience is the ultimate struggle.” Living in Grand Junction, Colorado, allows him to be close to the mountains, streams and red-rock canyons which he loves most, and provides endless opportunities for artistic growth and exploration.

John is one of 24 artists who will be participating in the Zion National Park Plein Air Invitational November 6-12. Artists will paint in the park, give free demonstrations, and sell their work at the end of the week to benefit youth and education programs in Zion National Park.
