An Inspiring Artist

This is my first initiation into the blogsphere, so here goes.My entry is about an artist whose body of work impresses and humbles me. His name is George Johanson and he is currently exhibiting a retrospective of his work at the Hallie Ford Museum in Salem,Oregon. The show follows his work from college days in the 1940s to present day. It illustrates his mastery of color, his intricate weaving of a story, and his great sense of composition. I highly recommend any artist or art lover see this show.
