My mom is an artist and my dad exposed us to design by filling our home with art from around the world. I thought I would introduce some of the talent in my family. First up is John Meng. John studied architecture for many years and decided that a scheduled life was not for him. John is an artist in the true sense of the word. He is a master painter, crafter and all around general idea man. Here is a look at some of the paintings he has hung in my home the last few months.

I am struck by John's sense of color and balance - his paintings almost look as if they are photographs. His ability to add just enough detail without going overboard is what makes him a great artist.
