Traditional landscapes

Timeless scenes capturing the beauty of the British countryside, coastal views, and moorland vistas.

Inspiration meets artistry

Unlike his private abstract work, John’s landscape process is wonderfully open, he often paints on location where rolling hills and dramatic skies can emerge on the canvas through careful layering of light and shadow, bringing each scene to life.

Can I see the artwork in person before purchasing?

You are very welcome to collect your purchase in person from John's studio in Nelson, Lancashire, UK. Just email to arrange a viewing and we'll provide the studio address.

How can I purchase a painting?

Paintings on the website which are marked ‘for sale’ with a specific price are available for immediate purchase. Please contact john@corcorangallery.co.uk or liz.corcoran@ymail.com to arrange your purchase. Paintings on the website which are marked ‘available by commission’ are painted by the artist to order. These are bespoke scenes, so the painting will be created for you and will be very similar to the one shown on the website, but not identical as no two paintings are exactly the same. To order a painting by commission please contact john@corcorangallery.co.uk or liz.corcoran@ymail.com.

How long until I receive my painting (marked available by commission)?

This will depend on how many commission orders John is currently working on. We will give you an indication of this when you contact us by email to order your painting. As a guide you should allow at least 4 weeks plus postage/ shipping time.

How long until I receive my painting (marked for sale)?

If you have purchased a painting marked ‘for sale’ we will package and ship/ post it to you within two working days of receiving your 50% deposit. Paintings are packaged, shipped and tracked using a reputable national/ international courier service such as DHL or Fedex. We will just need you to confirm your delivery address and the courier company will provide you with the tracking details.

I have purchased a painting, can I reproduce it to make cards or prints?

Unfortunately not. The copyright of each painting in part or in full belongs entirely to the artist, John Corcoran and his immediate family.

What are your sources of inspiration for the scenes you paint and can we visit any of the locations?

Some scenes are based on specific locations, but most are from the artist’s imagination. Locations of popular scenes include Pendle Hill (view from the village of Barley), Wycoller (pack-horse bridge), Wuthering Heights (Top Withens) which can be reached by following the footpath across the moor from Stanbury, near Haworth. Now only the ruins of the original farmhouse remain, thought to have inspired Emily Bronte’s classic novel. Cornish scenes include Mevagissey harbour and Polmassic village.
