John J Homes is a marine artist, from Tynemouth, Berwick upon Tweed
He moved to Edinburgh in his mid twenties, working in research and teaching laboratories. Consequently, a large number of his illustrations appear in text books and scientific journals.
In 1985 he retired to dedicate more time to his painting. In a relatively short time he has built up a reputation for accuracy and detail, a skill he attributes to the long hours spent peering into microscopes. However, he also manages to capture the mood and atmosphere of his subjects whether they be animals in the wild or landscapes such as the Border Moors.
His work often has a nautical theme, with ships, particularly sailing ships, being one of his favourite subjects.
