Pat Johnson

Pat Johnson is known for her sometimes disturbing yet humorous figures that take cues from a grab bag of influences ranging from antiquity to popular culture. Her current work has been a dialog of personal disasters with the protagonists as the artist. A full time artist for more than 30 years she lives and works in Fayetteville, Texas. She received her BFA from North Texas State University. Her work was included in the 1998 NCECA conference exhibition in Texas and the 2004 juried Craft Houston traveling exhibit organized by the Houston Center for Contemporary Crafts. She has been the First Place winner at the Winedale Crafts Exhibition and placed 2nd in the 15th Annual Ceramic National at the San Angelo Museum of Art. She has also won numerous awards from the Texas Clay Artist Association. Her tile work was recently included in the Lark Books publication, 500 Tiles.
