John Paul Daniel
John Paul Daniel also known as Bebo is a folk artist from Kingston Springs, Tennessee.[1] In 1993 he began sculpting folk art. He sculpts and creates most of his art from scrap lumber and other materials that he can find. His many sculptures include: squid, lizards, fish, snakes, gators, "critters", flowers, butterflies, and similar things. The main tools that he uses to create his art are a jigsaw, a saw, sandpaper, and sometimes a hatchet. He creates free-handed, without using patterns. His art is usually whimsical in character. His nickname came from a dream in which he was told by someone, "You are Bebo". From then on he has kept the name as his folk-artist nickname. John Paul Daniel has sold his artwork all over the world. Most of his art is in galleries.
Daniel is also a respected musician who is also known for playing the Blues.[2]
