ello, my name is John McGinley , and here is a little bit about myself:

    I am a poet and a painter living in Sacramento, California. I got into Scientology about thirty years ago and have been involved ever since. It was through Scientology that my purposes as an artist were revived. About eight years ago I began writing poetry, applying what I had learned in Scientology to this art form. I struggled at first, as all artists do but persisted and last year I published over 26 poems in various magazines in the U.S.

    Three years ago, having realized I also had a strong purpose as a child to paint, I took up brush and paint and canvas and once again applied the basic principles to this art form. I graduated from sketching to doing acrylics on canvas and finally oil paintings. This summer I will be having my first One Man Show here in Sacramento. My paintings hang in The university of Montana, Santiago Chile, Boston, and many other places. Dreams dreamed and dreams made to come true.
