"It's hard to put in a few words the impact of your work on me and others. As you traveled across the country I was blown away by your videos. Not only did they capture your painting but they captured the whole ambiance of what you were seeing. They made my heart sing. And now my husband and I enjoy your painting of Meetinghouse Road every morning over our breakfast table. Knowing how profound and far reaching an impact you are having in the world, however, touches me even more deeply. Your very generous donation of both time and money to Friends Association for Care and Protection of Children will continue to impact the kids we serve for many years. The power of your positive intent is so strong and has such a ripple effect. I wonder if you really have any idea what a difference you are making in the world? Thank you from the bottom of my heart."

"John's portrait of my 1700's farmhouse is amazing. It has so much movement and life that is so fitting for my house/recording studio. One can really see how much he gets into each environment when he works, and is impressively able to let that environment speak in his paintings. Even in the often low light of the farmhouse, the glow of the oils in this painting catch my eye every time I walk by it. It is very special to have."

"I love the use of color. The artwork grabs you and you feel a part of it... you cannot turn away. While many things come to mind while taking in John Hannafin's artwork, the most obvious of all is his unique interpretation of our Brandywine Valley pastoral scenes. Take a few moments to appreciate the lines, the colors, the strokes; They all are done with a liveliness and intention that invigorates your spiritual sense. His artwork is meant to be looked at, thought about, absorbed. In John's art work you can feel his sensitivity. If you have met John Hannafin he may seem a quiet person, yet in his artwork, he bears his soul. Keep an eye out for this emerging artist!"
Sarah Murray
Kennett Square, Pennsylvania

"I am honored to display in my home the beautiful paintings "Reflections on the Brandywine II & III." The passion conveyed in each painting allows for a vicarious journey especially through the incorporation of your videos. Your paintings bring to mind thoughts of serenity. You are truly an amazing artist with the ability to instill inspiration and personal reflection by your artwork as well as provide hope to so many people by your geniune care of others."

Shannon A.

"We are delighted to have your art hanging in our living room. Since coming together as a "blended family" a year ago, the first room you enter in our home had come together - but it lacked a unifying energy and theme. As soon as all of us (including the three little boys!) saw your painting we knew it would be the eye-grabbing centerpiece of our home - right over our mantel. It strikes everyone as soon as they enter the front door, and inspires comments from and dialogue with each of our visitors. It also is that unifying voice that has taken our living room and subtly transformed it into a room that is living with the energy of the family that inhabits it."

No matter where life's journey takes us, it will always remind us of this special chapter in our life -- the beginning of our marriage, the risk we took in building a business, and the most special part of all...the birth of our son. I can already fast forward 20 years from now and know the retrospective feeling of happiness it will bring to us. Thank you so much. We look forward to seeing your work to come..."
