John Lines paintings are distinctive and beautifully painted. His style is very much Modern British and Lines prefers painting in oil and watercolours. As an artist his stated aim is to 'Simply paint through honest eyes'. Ample evidence of this approach can be seen in his paintings of British Urban scenes and English Landscapes subjects.

John Lines paintings are varied. His art captures humour, nostalgia, romance and the beauty of British Countryside and everyday British Urban Life. Lines is equally successful painting landscapes, marine, portrait, transportation or what will in future years be seen as fine, social records of urban life. John travels extensively to find the right British scenes for his paintings. He regularly features Derbyshire, Lancashire, Leicestershire, Northampton, Nottinghamshire, Warwickshire, West Midlands and Yorkshire in his contemporary paintings.

John Lines has contemporary paintings in private and public art collections throughout the world. He has held workshops and lectures in Australia and USA. Lines also regularly holds lectures, workshops and demonstrations throughout the British Isles.
