Biography








 



Michael Louis Johnson: I am a visual artist, primarily a painter, living in New York City. Born, Flushing New York, 1949; an artist since the day I drew a large cartoon drawing of my Grandmother on a chalkboard (age 4) that raised eyebrows and drew smiles from family members. At age 7 we moved to Portland, Oregon for about a year. Life-changing would be an understatement. Those days have stuck fast to my heart right up to this very day.

 

Here in the Paintings and Drawings section are some examples of my work, for the most part, newest first and going back in time..
