A vintage Volkswagen bus with a surfboard secured to its roof is parked between palm trees. Just a few steps away, ocean waves ripple as bright clouds gather above. The vibrant colors give the composition a retro feel, perfectly capturing the laid-back spirit of summer.
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.

Cows graze outside a red barn, with wheat fields stretching into the distance. The bright sun casts high-contrast shadows, while the muted sky accentuates the vibrancy of the landscape. The composition captures the brilliant colors of a summer day.
