Layne Johnson - Artist Of The Week

Layne Johnson In Studio
This week I bring you, Layne Johnson. 

I first spotted this talented creator from Texas on Instagram.  He's quite a prolific Instagrammer. 

He believes art isn't something he "does" it's who he is. I like that.  

He says on his website, "I want my art to be a break from all the chaos and negativity." 

Absolutely! I agree wholeheartedly. We all need a respite from the vitriol that is so prevalent today.  That's part of the reason I have this website.

Though Layne produces some great portraiture, I get the feeling his heart is really with the landscape, and it shows. He wants to take his medium and transport you to a beautiful place, and for me, he does. 

His cloud paintings are phenomenal. His paintings give you  a real sense of their overwhelming size and grandeur on the landscape.

Clouds are pretty much made from the same stuff, but they can be dramatically different. Some are wispy as a breath of air, and some have such heft you wonder how they stay aloft.

Clouds are constantly evolving. If you watch them long enough, you can see them changing before your eyes. They grow, evaporate, shade you from the sun, and pour down rain. They can morph from one shape to another before you know it. 

I love how different parts of the cloud reflect and filter  light differently.  Layne captures the whole spectrum of color from nature on his canvas. 

He is, like many artists, a teacher. It's no good to just hold on to your talents or techniques. It's much better to spread the wealth around. If you want to learn his techniques and make beautiful art as well, you can order his online course or attend one of his in-person workshops. 

But, don't take my word for it. Check out Layne Johnson's work for yourself.  Here's where you can find him on the interweb. I'm sure he would appreciate a visit and a like or two on social media.
