Chuck Johnson

Red Still Life, 1989
Oil on Canvas, 54" x 62"

Charles Johnson was born on January 23, 1939, in Baltimore, Maryland, and has lived there ever since.  As a child, Johnson taught himself to draw and then later, to paint.  An indefatigable artist, he has continued to paint, working in the evenings after spending his days repairing, painting and staining walls for a living.  His artwork almost exclusively utilizes oil paint, although the finished pictures in their framing incorporate other textures and media like linoleum.  Johnson’s works have recently been exhibited in Baltimore at Coppin State College, at the Arena Theater, at Lutheran Hospital and the exhibition space at Coffee and Books.
