John K. Lawson (artist)
John K. Lawson aka JKL (born 1962 in Birmingham, England) is an American Contemporary visual artist and poet, also known as the "Hieronymus Bosch of Beads," and is known for using salvaged Mardi Gras beads and items reclaimed from the destruction left by Hurricane Katrina in his art.
==Early Life and Career==
John K. Lawson was born in Birmingham, England, and grew up in the English countryside. His family moved to South London when he was in his early teens. He first came to America as part of a student exchange program in engineering at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge. At the program, his artistic abilities were encouraged, and two years later he returned to England to concentrate on landscape painting. His work was successfully exhibited at the White Lane Gallery, Plymouth, England. Later, Lawson returned to the United States, and soon became part of an underground art culture in New Orleans that included working in tattoo, T-shirt and mural designs.〔John K. Lawson, ''Hurricane Hotel: A Novel'', 2008.〕 Lawson also became known for his unique drawing style〔"The New Orleans Times Picayune: The color's the thing for bead artist" November 9, 2001〕 and creations using discarded Mardi Gras beads. The items he has covered with intricate bead work include mannequins, pianos, and drums, as well as a fifty-three-foot-long bar top at the Audubon Hotel.〔"The Baltimore Sun", October 16, 2002, "AVAM Just Says Yes to the Art of Addiction"〕 Some of the pieces focus on jazz musicians and historical figures from New Orleans' history.〔NBC News ("Mardi Gras Beads Make Fine Art" )〕
