John Carpenter is an Art Teacher and semi-retired jazz singer, and is also a children's book author. As a child he always drew but spent 35 years in a sales/marketing position. In his mid 50s he had some heart issues and made a decision to attempt to engage in his first love, art. Since then he's been engaged in introducing art to people who for various reasons felt that art wasn’t for them and for some reason you had to be 'somewhat special' to engage in art . He loves to see students confidence grow as their long hidden talents emerge.
