John Sheeran is an experienced and popular art lecturer who is much admired for the way he brings the Old and Modern Masters to life. John worked as a museum curator during the 1980s, including seven years as Curator of Dulwich Picture Gallery, London. At Dulwich, John was responsible for a world-famous collection of Old Master paintings and a Sir John Soane architectural masterpiece. He also helped to establish the gallery's first exhibition and education programmes.
also ran a consultancy service for professional artists, advising numerous painters, sculptors and printmakers on their career development.
In 2008, John started giving his weekly Discover the Great Painters art talks in Framlingham, Suffolk. These informative art appreciation talks are delivered in a relaxed and engaging manner and attract a loyal audience from far afield. They have proved so popular that John decided to stop his art consultancy work to focus exclusively on his art talks. In 2011, John started to give these talks in other towns in Suffolk.
John and Imogen have two sons. Matthew is a young classical composer and postgraduate music student. Ed is a young singer-songwriter, signed to Asylum / Atlantic Records.
Sheeran Lock
In 1990, John left museums to set up the independent art consultancy Sheeran Lock with his wife Imogen, an expert in cultural PR. Over the next 20 years, they created many exciting art exhibitions and education projects in the UK and abroad, mostly funded by government organisations and the corporate sector. These included prestigious art exhibitions, including the official 50th Birthday Exhibition of The Prince of Wales at Hampton Court Palace in 1998, and the United Nations Millennium Exhibition opened by Kofi Annan (right, with John) at UN Headquarters in New York in 2000.

Education
The work John found most rewarding during his years with Sheeran Lock was the development of groundbreaking art education initiatives for young people in disadvantaged communities around the UK. A favourite was the Talking Pictures education project, in which John took inner-city teenagers around their local art museums and showed them how relevant great artworks can be to their own lives, concerns and feelings.
