John Guillemette

Motorcycle lifestyle artist John Guillemette is from Revere, Massachusetts.

His motorcycle and chopper themed oil paintings have been displayed at custom bike shows
 all over the USA as well as in the Legend’s Gallery in Sturgis, SD.

 

 

John creates paintings with a focus on extreme realism.  The impressive detail he captures in his work is amazing.  Each painting brings out the striking beauty of the subject matter. 

Here you can see a before and after.  In the upper left, John was working diligently on this #1 Print of a 1936 Indian Chief Motorcycle.  The lower right shows the finished piece. 

As you can see, John is an incredible artist and we were very proud to have him display his works at the Springfield Motorcycle Show.

 

The long hours behind the easel have not gone unnoticed, as John is well recognized as an exceptional talent.  Many of John’s paintings have been featured multiple times in prominent magazines such as V-Twin and  Easyriders. 

 

Just recently (Oct 2017), Cycle Source Magazine did a piece about John and his work.  The author is truly impressed with the amazing realism that John captures in his work.  “We have a couple of his paintings hanging up at Cycle Source HQ and I am honored to have been able to interview him”  With such skill, it is interesting to note that John is self taught.  Simply put, John Guillemette is a natural talent.  He has taken many years to fine tune his skill to it’s current level and although it is hard to believe, he still keeps getting better! 

 

 

In 2007, John introduced his “Masters and Machines” portraits.  The first three custom builders featured were Dave Perewitz, Jesse James, and Arlen Ness.

In 2008 his portraits of custom bike buiding legends Jesse James and Arlen Ness from the “Masters and Machines” series were selected to hang in the Motorcycle Museum Hall of Fame.
