Painting With John, a new unscripted series written, directed by and starring John Lurie, is a part meditative tutorial, part fireside chat. Each episode has Lurie, the co-founder of the musical group The Lounge Lizards, at his worktable, honing his watercolor techniques and sharing what he’s learned about life. With images of Lurie’s paintings, original music and his point of view all rolled into one, the series strikes an irreverent tone while reminding us to prioritize some time every day for creativity, fun and a bit of mischief.
