John was a full-time studio potter from 1974 through to 1997, when he began what he expected to be a short hiatus from the studio in order to focus on developing The Avens Gallery in Canmore, Alberta. Twelve years later, the gallery is doing well representing dozens of local and regional artists ... and John is getting some time back in the pottery studio.

His original training with clay took place in Ontario from 1971 - 1974, when he apprenticed at Wilton Pottery and studied under Robin Hopper at Georgian College.

John relocated in 1975 to Alberta with his wife Lynn, where he shared workspace with Tony Bloom at Stonecrop Studios for many years. He opened Notch Hill Pottery in 1980 in the interior of British Columbia, which he & Lynn operated for five years prior to returning to Canmore, Alberta.

In 1991 John opened his own pottery in Canmore, which still operates as the studio 'of Cabbages & Kings', though he now shares the studio with his daughter Katie who is working as a full-time studio potter.
