He also studied with William Bell Scott, another renowned Scottish painter, engraver and poet. In 1853 he went to the USA, where he first trained as a glassblower in Brooklin. Later he began to study at the National Academy of Design, which had been founded in 1826 following the example of the British Royal Academy of Arts. One of the school's founders was the well-known and famous miniature painter Thomas Seir Cummings, one of Brook's teachers.
John George Brown quickly achieved success as a painter. This was especially true of his very detailed, though from today's perspective highly sentimentalized depictions of the people in the immigrant centers of his new home. He painted the children and young people on the street, the street musicians, salesmen, shoeshine boys and servants. With "genuine British thoroughness" he showed the torn clothes, worn shoes and greasy caps of the poor. Nevertheless, he did not paint the sad reality of their lives, their hunger and hopelessness, but made them appear picturesque, cheerful and resourceful. This made his works very popular with the public. With his work "His first Cigar", published in 1860, he achieved national fame and gained the reputation of "Bootblack Raphael". His pictures sold well and were lithographed en masse. The paintings "Sleeping Angel", The Boy Violinist", "Sunshine", "A Longshoreman" and "All Right" also became internationally known. His probably most famous work with the title Heels over Head " was shown in 1900 at the world exhibition in Paris. Since 1863 Brown exhibited his paintings in the National Academy of Designs and they can still be seen today in the museum on the Upper East Side in Manhattan, New York. But his paintings can also be found in the Metropolitan Museum New York, the Corcoran Gallery Washington and the Museum Detroit.
John George Brown was one of the most famous and probably also the richest genre painter at the end of the 19th century. At the end of his career, his paintings sold for 500 to 1,000 dollars per picture, and he also received royalties of up to 25,000 dollars from just one lithograph.
