John Jaster
Tea and Flowers, Original Painting

2022

About the Item

Artist Comments
Artist John Jaster renders an impressionistic still life in bright, cheerful colors. A teapot, a ceramic cup, a slice of lemon, a bowl of limes, and a vase of flowers, all set on a floral tablecloth. The sun shines through a leaded glass window behind the setting. The painting blends a palette of reds, blues, violets, and yellows into a harmonious sense of joy.


About the Artist
Artist John Jaster paints in a style he describes as realistic impressions, capturing colorful views of his adventures across the Americas. "People always ask me how I get such deep brilliant colors," says John. "The answer is layers. Since acrylic paint dries mostly transparent, it requires multiple layers of paint to build up to a specific color. With the right lighting that depth of layering is like sunshine glistening through clear water." In college, John felt a pull towards computer science and pursued a career in software architecture. Although the two paths may seem unrelated, John says his work in software strongly influences his artwork in terms of distilling complex systems without losing the magic and wonder. Today, John works from a large home studio with a fireplace, lots of natural light, and jazz playing in the background. Since 2010, John’s paintings have been displayed in over 90 juried exhibitions and published in leading art magazines and books.

  • Bowl of Grapes, Original Painting
    Located in San Francisco, CA

    Artist Comments
    Artist John Jaster portrays a fresh display of red and green grapes with a ripe pomegranate placed in a glass bowl. Set above a patterned table cloth, the glass reflects light and vibrant hues of pink that surrounds it. Bunches of grapes nest in the cloth's loose crease reminiscent of tiny bird eggs. The dark background highlights the scene completing the composition.

  • Buck Owen & Emmylou Harris, Original Painting
    Located in San Francisco, CA

    Artist Comments
    Artist John McCabe creates three colorful guitars lined in a row. "This was made originally as a promotional poster for a series of acoustic guitar performances that I was doing in Orange County, CA," shares John. He selects rough depictions of some of his favorite guitars and guitar players. The piece pays homage to Buck Owens' red, white, and blue guitar, Emmylou Harris' Gibson J-200, and Don Rich's acoustic Fender.
