James Johnston Artist's Statement:
"I want my paintings and sculptures to be interactive with the viewer. I want to get the viewers imagination working on the piece. I leave much to the imagination. The work brings the viewer into the middle of a story, the emotions are suggested, and the audience ends up providing the intimate details. With their involvement, the art becomes something for them to spend endless hours enjoying, as they fill in the missing pieces."

Commissions gladly accepted for "Umbrella Couples" Style Paintings.
