As a young boy John Powell spent many hours with this father, a prominent artist in California. John was supplied with a canvas and paints to keep him occupied during time spent in the studio. Such occassions proved to be an important first step in John's career. John recalls one weekend in particular when long hours were spent in the studio listening to his father and fellow artists, Will Foster, discuss colour. "I was on the bus going home to Hollywood. The evening was warm and the shadows strong. Suddenly it hit me like a mallett on the head; there it was, all the colours they were talking about. The trees weren't just green; they were blue and purple and orange. I remember that experience like it was yesterday; I think of it as my awakening." This recollection of those early years is significant, as it is not merely the facility of the hand that makes the artist; it is the abilty to see.
