Born in Lewes, Sussex, England in 1945, John Donaldson was exhibiting and selling his paintings by his mid-teens. He received much of his early training from his grandfather, an English impressionist of the Bloomsbury School.

Between 1963 and 1975 he followed careers as diverse as church music, rock and modern jazz, commercial art and landscape architecture. In 1975 he finally gave in to his true vocation, settled with his family in a rural valley in Devon and began to paint full-time.

He now divides his time between his studios in Devon and Southwest France where he paints watercolours and oils which vibrate with the light and colours of the Mediterranean landscape.
