JUROR – JOHN PAUL THORNTON
John Paul attended Otis Parsons School of Design and California State University at Northridge, where he received his B.A. while working with two distinct voices in American art: Hans Burkhardt and Saul Bernstein. Extensive travels throughout Europe have given him the opportunity to study the history of Western Art. Invitations to work and teach in India, China, Nepal, Japan and Mexico have expanded his knowledge of traditional Eastern and Pre-Columbian art. As an award-winning professional painter, he regularly conducts workshops and lectures to audiences around the globe.
