Born in Limerick in 1950, John Shinnors studied for a short time at Limerick School of Art
and Design under Jack Donovan before leaving the confines of conventional education to
pursue his own vision of artistic creativity. His paintings tend to combine the figurative and
abstract at once, with coloured or black and white geometric shapes and repetition of form
featuring strongly in his work.This unique style and treatment of subject matter lend well to
Shinnors’ favoured motifs which include lighthouses, scarecrows, clowns and indigenous
wildlife such as cows, crows and rabbits.
