His prints and paintings are instantly recognizable regardless of where they are displayed. I get a great deal of satisfaction knowing that my style is mine, achieved through many years of hard work and not influenced by any institution or individual, past or present, John proudly states. For many years he concentrated on the study and painting of wildlife, waterfowl, fish, coral reefs and florals. He performed the tremendous research and also developed the skill and patience required to paint these subjects accurately and realistically. His duck paintings are among the very best, as evidenced by his being named Artist of the Year in 1985 & 1989 by Ducks Unlimited. He was selected, for several years, to design and paint the official annual Louisiana Sportsmens Show poster. In addition to wildlife scenes, John produced his bayou country works. His very intricate paintings of oyster boats, shrimp trawlers, and peaceful bayous and water ways are in ever-increasing demand. Says John: I felt the need to record these scenes through my paintings before their innocent beauty is lost to encroaching civilization. Because of my feelings for these subjects, I am able to paint with both emotion and realism. Akers works are on display in many fine galleries in Louisiana, Texas, Florida, Mississippi, Alabama and Georgia. His works also hang in thousands of homes and offices throughout the Unites States. Johns paintings are in collections in England, Australia, South America, Mexico, Africa, Europe, Russia, Japan and in many other countries. He is listed in American Artists of Renown, the book of whos who in American art.
