John Lyon Paul

A Visit to the Artist's Studio

John Lyon Paul translates the benefits of meditation into a series of color-drenched abstract paintings on glass, eliciting the luminous mystery of nature and existence.  Grounded in a lifetime practice of spiritual exercises, Paul makes use of both geometric and organic abstraction to focus and concentrate thought and feeling in light of lived experience. At the same time, Paul eschews recognizable contact with conventional religion. Because he is a visionary artist, his work is very much his own.
