Children's book author Chris Johnson is also a professional artist with work featured in Denver's greatest Art District.
"I began painting in 2009 and now it is a significant part of my life and I consider it a privilege to be able to make art that people enjoy. I think painting can be made to seem difficult, but with a few rules to keep in mind, and a few practice paintings out of the way, anyone can do it. I never had a formal art class. I learned by trial and error, by watching instructional videos by David Dunlop, Quang Ho, and of course, Bob Ross! Part of what drives me is that I am never fully satisfied with any painting I always find something I wish to improve upon. Kind words from happy customers are also appreciated." --Chris Johnson
His painting can be seen at Grace Gallery in the heart of Denver’s Art District on Santa Fe.
