Janice Johnson

Artist's Statement

My primary interest is the unexpected details of fruit, vegetables and flowers. Capturing my "up close and personal" experience with

plants is what my work is about.

My early education was in botany and horticulture. After a career in

agri-business a diagnosis of MS forced me to rethink how else

I could use my abilities. Creating art work pulls together all the

essential pieces of "me", a means to make a living and a

meaningful place in the world.

My Original watercolor paintings, prints and notecards are

brilliantly colored, bold designs suitable for cheerful occasions

and contemporary settings. I produce cards and prints from my

paintings using digital technology. This technology enables me to

produce cards on demand and prints custom made to the

buyer’s size and framing wishes.

I work at Chestnut Hill Studio in Mineral Point, Wisconsin with my

artist husband.My work may be seen at Howdle Gallery in Mineral Point from April through December or anytime by chance

or appointment.
