John Succi is a poet, painter, and visual artist from Portsmouth, NH. His creative focus centers around appreciation of the abstract. He creates to free himself of thought, to be immersed in words and color, and to lift back the veil of unearthly shadows. John pursues his story while building meaning with words and carving out the narrative beneath layers of paint. Each piece reflects the soul of the artist during the process of its creative conception. In every piece, poem, or painting, time is captured as an infinite snapshot of the artist. His studio is in South Berwick, Maine, and functions as a gallery space.
