Alison Johnson

Alison lives in Warwickshire and works from her Studio based at Fargo Coventry. Her atmospheric oil paintings are vibrant and seductive, and a focal point for any space. By expressing the power of light she shows the abstract, surreal side to the natural world.

Her interest in nature and unmaterialistic beauty has been a constant source of passion since childhood, be it relationships between people, the struggles of life and the ever changing but constant landscape around. Fuelled by a previous career in nursing, Alison aims to combine these emotions.

Her seascapes follow a deep tradition which she modernises and brings to a contemporary forefront. Colours sink below a piercing white surface as oceans and landscapes drift in and out of a sweeping hazy mist. The sky appears deep and brooding, the colours revealing a darkness that battles with the flashes of light. When shapes and figures do reveal themselves they appear lost and fragile against the infinite space of the world around.

With a nod to the impressionist painters Johnson's work has been likened to the great masters of our time such as Turner. Her work continues to reach clients on an international scale.
