John Lasonio painting with acrylic markers in his studio

About John

Color has a way of bringing a moment back.

John Lasonio uses art to slow down and get lost in light, color, and water. Every painting is made solely with acrylic markers, building layered color that stays crisp while feeling loose and alive.

Light, color, water.

John is drawn to the way light shifts across a surface and how water is always moving but never the same. His work captures those passing moments as places to pause, remember, and return to.

Acrylic markers, built by hand.

John paints solely with acrylic art markers, using their clean, direct color to give every work a luminous surface and a distinct hand.
