In his many travels, John Davis Held spent several months living in an African Hut, before hitch-hiking across Europe to paint the cathedrals, castles, and countryside.
John Davis Held is known for his luminous work in pastel and oil, and has had One Man Shows at the Gallery D'May, NIH, and the Troika Gallery where he is currently represented. He has appeared on CBS and Fox news, and his art was featured this last December on MPT Artworks as well as being displayed on the 60 foot jumbotron across from Penn Station in Baltimore.
After several years living in Seattle, he now lives in a historic Tudor home in Baltimore with his beautiful wife and their two cats.
