JOHNCOOMBES.COM - Site Information

John Coombes I am John Coombes. I am an artist. I paint portraits and figurative pieces in oils on panel. I work in an old woollen mill in Huddersfield, England. I work with ballet dancers and acrobats and always paint and draw the figure from life. I paint in oils and draw in charcoal and write in small notebooks. When not painting portraits, dancers or acrobats, I paint the female nude [though I have painted an elephant]. My paintings are large Johncoombes.com
