John Scane was born in Los Angeles in 1967. Spending the first year of life as a foster child Scane was later adopted by his foster parents and raised in the small town of Glendora in Southern California.

I have been painting the California landscape professionally for the past fifteen years. As a fourth generation resident of the San Joaquin Valley I’ve made the California landscape; particularly the Central Valley, my life-long work.

I haven't always painted, but I have always enjoyed land. Growing up in California, especially in the Central Valley it has been easy to be exposed to a variety of geography.
