It is so bright and colorful from his time in Maui. We are quite interested in purchasing more of his work, so if any of you who have some of his work, please send along photographs. We are in Monterey, CA. I am at kk_sheridan@yahoo.com

Thanks!!!

I have a John St. John painting that my father bought from him at his gallery in Solvang around 1984 or so and I also have a “coffee table” book signed by John. Let me know if you are still interested.
Thanks,
Dave

Also had him sign his book. The true name of the Bull was La Ultima Cargo.

I would be interested in seeing any photos you might have of John St. John’s paintings, dimensions and what you might be looking to sell any of them for. I admired them at the end of his life, but was unable to afford them then.

Best regards,

Eric Huenneke

I would be interested in seeing a photo of John St. John’s painting which is in your family and you mention on the blog. I’m interested in owning one of his paintings someday when I find the right one. Thanks.

I met him perhaps in the very early ’80s at his studio in Solvang and greatly admired his work. Couldn’t afford it then and found that he was gone some years later when passing through there again. Remember him saying he didn’t like to sell more paintings to one family than there were family members. If anyone is looking to sell a painting of his, would be very interested in seeing pictures, etc. I now live in Cambridge, Massachusetts, where I’m owner/innkeeper of a Victorian bed and breakfast. My own father is a sculptor near San Diego, though mostly retired now at age 90.

Love the fascinating dialogue. Thanks to all.

My cousin, who was there in the Navy, had already purchased one of his paintings. I picked one I wanted to buy but John wasn’t sure it was the right one for me. He told me to take it home (I was living on a Navy base there) and see if I still liked it after a while. Amazingly, after a couple of weeks, I started to feel as if it really wasn’t for me. I will never know if that was my real reaction or John’s suggestion. Anyway, I took it back to him and bought another one that I have loved everyday since. It’s a blend of reds and oranges and, to me, it seems to be PR from high up in the sky during a sunset.
Is there any source where I could get more info on his paintings – such as places to view other paintings and see what price ranges are? Estate planning time is coming and I would like to have my chosen recipient know the facts.
Thanks.
