John Roelofs is an artist living in Los Angeles. He works primarily in watercolor and mixed media on paper. He scavenges compositional devices from images of the cosmos and the microscopic structure of metals, among other sources of natural phenomena. The idea that visual patterns repeat across vastly different scales informs his way of looking. By excavating what lies beyond the limits of perception, he renders abstraction through the representation of the unseen.

He is currently a dual-degree student in the MFA Art and MA Arts Management programs at Claremont Graduate University.
