| 1985-1991 Arguably some of John's most famous artworks to date were created in this period. Very Jackson Pollock inspired; famously adorned the Stone Roses records. |
 |
 |
1992-1999 Very much more of a sculptural feel to John's works in this period. Includes work from Second Coming releases and Seahorses' Do It Yourself, some of which have a Jasper Johns feel about them. |
| 2000-2003 For the lauching of his solo career, John worked with animal skulls, other mediums include plaster of paris, oak and a lot of photography was used for the album artwork. |
 |
 |
2003-2005 Artwork from the Marshall's House era include underwater nudes, line art and two important reinterpretations of his earlier works. This period also includes a varied range of styles that were commissioned by Aesthetica Magazine. |
| 2006 Making his first steps as a full-time artist comes a first batch of artworks from early 2006, a number of which have a similar feels to Mark Rothko's Colourfield works, the majority have a World War II influence to them. |
 |
 |
2006 Another large series from Spring 2006; some building on the previous line art theme, others taking the form of complex spiralling designs and inspired by characters and quotes from Jim Dodge's 'Stone Junction' novel. |
| 2006-2007 Starting with Squire's first contribution to the RCA Secrets project (in 2006), he created range of oil and sand on canvas based pieces that had once again some action-painting elements to them. |
 |
 |
2007 New Work 1 Smithfield Gallery. Evolving from the above series; these painting explore different shapes made by trailing and building up layers or channels. |
| 2007 New Work 2 Dazed Gallery & RCA Secret 2007. Again these pieces further explore the ideas used in the above series. Bringing in more materials to experiment with such as glass, wax, pencil and the start of ideas for the below range in the form of various 'paper' materials. |
 |
 |
2008 Re-Engineered Garments. Pieces which saw John re-appropriate used clothing to reduce our focus onto the intricacies of the weave and texture of the cloth which he integrated into the textural surface of the paintings. |
| 2008 Electropalatography Series & RCA Secret 2008. Each work in the series uses a unique found image overprinted and finished personally by Squire, with the graphic output based on an electropalatograph machine. |
 |
 |
2008 Noise. A series based on a sample of covert recordings he made from conversations overheard in and around Manchester. The results show ordinary unrecognisable landscapes come alive with hand-written text that builds up in an almost action-painting style creating powerful stand-out images. |
| 2008-2009 Heat, Light, Death And Industry. Consisting of massive-scale sculptures based on smaller scale cardboard packaging and paintings that centre around the flattened out maps of the packaging and Euroslot packaging hole. |
 |
 |
2009 Various, Statement, Nativity & RCA Secret 2009. Statement has origins in the packaging study, while the RCA Secrets piece is borrowed from Aperture and War Child Heroes is a third installment of Squire's involvement of the War Child project. |
| 2009 Aperature. A series of paintings and drawings on canvas and hand-made paper. It was part of John's study of negative space, consumer packaging and "image burn-in"; the lingering after effect carried on the retina. |
 |
 |
2009-2010 Structural Violence. A vigorous collection that blends block colour and stark monotone, using hand-carved block prints to explore the influence of architectural structures and linear cityscapes. |
| 2010 Penguin Decades & 'London Calling'. John designed five pieces commissioned by Penguin Books for the 1980s range of their 'Decades' release series of re-issued novels. |
 |
 |
2010 Nefertiti. Evolving from the Structural Violence pieces, this is a series of work inspired by the music of jazz legend Miles Davies. |
| 2011 Celebrity. This was a study into the fascination with the celebrity culture and asks whether they are famous because they have contributed something useful to society or just because they've appeared enough in 'celeb' magazines, 'famous for being famous', etc. |
