John-Paul Flintoff Homepage

Welcome

I’m John-Paul. I’m a writer and artist. I live in London.

I work at the intersection of story, art, incl drawing and painting, and performance.

Creative self-expression is a route to insight, confidence, and transformation – for me and for others.

I help people find a voice, and make a mark.

My approach combines classical rhetoric with theatrical improvisation, visual art with narrative, technical skill with emotional truth.

These things feed each other.

Work with me

I’ll help you discover and express your most powerful, authentic self.

The work is fundamentally the same, regardless of the specific output:

Background

Seven books, in 16 languages: fiction, illustrated poetry, memoir and non-fiction.

Worked for years as a journalist, magazine writer and editor on the Financial Times and the Sunday Times.

Trained in classical rhetoric and theatrical improvisation.

Recovered from psychiatric crisis through making art. It wasn’t just recovery but liberation. That experience transformed my understanding of creative practice and informs everything I do.
