About

Nice to meet you!

My name is Whitney John and I’m an artist focused primarily in figurative portrait painting. I’m currently a student at Southern Virginia University planning to go on to get a masters in painting.

As I look back I can’t help but laugh at how long it took me to realize that I really wanted to be an artist professionally, seeing how invested I’ve been in creating art since I was little. Making art of the things and people I care about has always been one of the major ways that I process the world around me, and it continues to provide a sense of connection and fulfillment. My work currently focuses on the human figure and the emotions and stories that bring people together.
