ARTISTE DE L'ATELIER

 SANDEE SHAFFER JOHNSON

Artiste américaine ayant participé à de nombreuses expositions, Sandee Johnson a 1'âme Bohémienne. Elle a voyage, vécu et travaille dans plus de 60 pays différents. Elle trouve son inspiration dans toute chose, traduisant ses idées en expressions a la fois évidentes et subtiles que 1'acrylique rend particulièrement bien. Forte de son expérience en journalisme, photographie et poésie, elle aime intégrer des textes dans ses collages et compositions mixtes.

Paysages et musiques influencent sa palette et son choix d'un thème de prédilection.

Pendant que certaines toiles explosent de couleurs, d'autres explorent des tonalités plus sombres, les couleurs neutres étant enrichies par des matériaux collés en  surface. Même si  Sandee Johnson avoue sa préférence pour ses toiles abstraites, elle combine parfois des éléments figuratifs et imaginatifs. Son atelier ressemble à un tourbillon de créativité.
