ABOUT ME
John Bayalis has been the recipient of numerous
awards throughout the United States and has painted
abroad in Ireland, England and France.
Noted for his distinct, realist style, the artist’s skill at
handling contemporary themes and subject matter
has earned him acclaim from art critics and collectors
throughout the United States. John’s vibrant
watercolors reflect a specific clarity of light and form,
while dealing with unique viewpoints in portraying
popular culture and the vernacular landscape.
The artist has also embraced still life as a format, and
sought to show a personal vision in both content and
composition. Intricate set ups include man-made and
natural elements as well as printed backdrops,
vintage postcards and periodicals. The carefully
selected viewpoints depict compositions meticulously
rendered on the watercolor paper, that glow in subtly
balanced color palettes.
Among his honors are an award of an individual artist’s
fellowship grant and the selection for The Watercolor Page
in AMERICAN ARTIST magazine where one of his works
graced the cover.
The artist’s works are included in private and corporate
collections throughout the United States.
