| John Daniel Wibberley was born in Auburn, California on the 5th of August, 1956.
Wibberley has been an artist most of his life. In high school he discovered a
passion for art. His creativity was endless, and being quite prolific, forced him to
unusual methods to develop his style. After his first bicycle painting in 1972 while
attending high school, Wibberley's painting led to a fascination with the bicycle as a
subject for his acrylic and watercolor paintings. By isolating different elements of the
body of the bicycle and using a pallet of bright colors to paint the silhouette, he
creates a very pleasing surrealism.
After high school, he went on to study art and fine art at Columbia Jr.
College and Sierra College in California. In 1982 Wibberley published, produced and
distributed his first art print. "I wanted to get my work in the market place so I
did it myself."
Today John lives in Grass Valley, California on a ranch he's had since 1979, and he
has built his own studio for creating his art and music. "I really enjoy art, it's my
God given gift, it's the one thing I love doing the most |
