  • Walrus Wading artwork by John Lennon - art listed for sale on Artplode

About Artist:

While music will be remembered as John Lennon's most popular art form, he loved both literature and visual art. John Lennon studied art at Liverpool Art Institute from 1957-1960. John Lennon penned and illustrated three books: In His Own Write, A Spaniard in the Works, and Skywriting by Word of Mouth.

As early as 1969, John Lennon began moving toward a return to visual art, preferring drawing in particular the creative loose sketch, working in pen and ink. In 1969, as a wedding gift for Yoko, John drew the Bag One Portfolio, a chronicle of their wedding ceremony, honeymoon, and their plea for world peace, the Bed-in. The suite also contained erotic sketches. The Bag One Series was first published and exhibited in January 1970 at the London Art Gallery. On the second day, the exhibition was closed by Scotland Yard and the erotic lithographs confiscated.

During 1986, Yoko Ono decided to share John Lennons drawings with the public by publishing the first a series of fine art prints for sale titled This is my Story Both Humble and True followed with Bag One Continued .Dakota Days, Karuizawa Series, Japan Through John Lennons Eyes, Real Love the Drawings for Sean and Mind Games These fine art prints are a commentary on Johns everyday life, his wife, Yoko and their son, Sean. The drawings are whimsical ,poetic, loving portraits of their years together. Drawn by one of the most important cultural figures of our time, these illustrations celebrate human love and communication- two themes at the heart of John Lennon art and his contribution to the art of the twentieth century.
