John McDonald

Scottish artist John McDonald, who paints with unashamed passion and pathos, has
received international acclaim for Butterfly Cry, a series of portraits of his Mexican
Hero, the most-loved artist of Mexico.

John’s fine art practice is informed by the two passions of his life: passion for
creative arts, and passionate campaigning for social justice. John’s painting is in a
socially critical tradition, and is socially engaged: both through residencies and
commissions where he leads people to discover themselves as artists, and through
his emotive, sometimes challenging, paintings.
