CHERYL JOHNSON, an artist deeply rooted in North Carolina, spent countless hours sketching, drawing, and experimenting with paint on canvas. This immersive practice cultivated a kind of muscle memory, allowing her to work intuitively in her studio. While her paintings are abstract, they are inspired by landscapes. However, the final result is less a static view and more a dynamic, expressive event.
Cheryl Johnson's artistic journey is a testament to the power of exploration and evolution. Initially grounded in representational oil paintings, her work has taken on a more abstract form, embracing mixed media and focusing on the interplay of color and movement. Inspired by her travels, Johnson's distinct style continues to evolve as she expands her vocabulary of mark-making and color composition.
Striking a delicate balance between the planned and the spontaneous, Johnson's work seeks to capture the beauty and complexity of the world around us. Her commitment to strong concepts and aesthetics ensures that each piece is a meaningful and visually engaging experience. Through her art, Johnson invites viewers to look beyond the surface and discover the hidden depths of beauty.
