Shana Johnson

I'm a self-taught abstract artist who is drawn to color, movement, texture, and the freedom of it all. My work is inspired by nature, music, emotion, and imagination.

When I'm painting, I often find myself seeing visions and stories unfold in my mind and onto the canvas. I trust my intuition throughout the process and rarely start with a plan. My work is about exploring, experimenting, and seeing where my imagination takes me.

For me, painting is about connection, joy, peace, and curiosity. It's a way to express myself, get lost in the moment, and discover something completely unexpected along the way. I hope my work sparks something in others and allows them to connect with each painting in their own way.
