Ashley Johnson (b. 1991) is an American Artist currently based out of Guam.
Her body of work is mainly comprised of realistic oil paintings. Her choice of subject matter consists of portraiture, home life items, plants, animals and the occasional landscape.
She mainly concerns herself with remembering and immortalizing the beauty in the slow and quiet moments of life.
Her inspiration comes from, what some would consider more or less mundane subject matter, yet profound when really observed: the passing of the seasons, the absurdly naughty look of a child up to something, and pretty flowers sitting too long on the shelf, thus losing their petals.
“My ambition is to convey the delicate and fleeting emotion born of inspiration, to capture the childlike awe of my subject which visually moves me, and to visibly offer this up to my viewers in hopes to evoke similar feelings.”
