ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Anne Johnstone’s artwork has always served as an emotional catharsis as well as a focused outlet for what is underneath the surface in relationships. Coming of age in the country, isolated with a family in conflict, readied me for sensitivity to the seen and the unseen. Drama, tension, and intensity—ingested over time—became nerve centers which provoked my artistic release. Now my paintings are populated by people and animals Distortion is common among them. They speak through their exaggerations, invoking magnified responses to contrived circumstances. I am at play on the picture plane.
