Johnny Tapia has been inspired by some great painters and artists in all kinds of mediums thru out the years. He has learned a lot visually and will continue on the study of oil painting. He spends some of his time doing some study paintings based on what he has come across with color applications textures size and other areas to apply to his studies and have progressed physically doing so. There is lots to learn and it will continue to be a learning experience for Johnny but he has continued to experiment to find his way to his style.
