Megan Woodard Johnson is a mixed media artist living and creating in West Bend, Wisconsin. Johnson received a formal education in Graphic Design and Fine Art Printmaking from Shepherd University in West Virginia, earning her BFA in 1996. 20 years ago she shifted to mixed media painting and never looked back.
Johnson spent her formative years moving around the country, gathering up experiences before moving to Wisconsin and gradually putting down roots. She leads a rich life focused on noticing moments and making connections, filtering all of these into the layers that build up her paintings.
Over the years, Johnson has shown steadily in group and solo exhibitions, taught workshops and completed multiple artist residencies. Her work hangs in private and corporate collections across and beyond the United States and is represented in multiple US galleries. Johnson has also curated exhibitions and built connections with artists around the globe by offering courses and small group mentorships.
