Originally from Sioux City, Iowa, Kim Johnson discovered her love for the creative process at a young age.  On the advice of family and friends concerned that she have a 'real career', Kim completed her degree in psychology before pursuing her real passion - watercolor.

"I started taking art classes and it was so exciting!  I loved creating paintings and amazed myself with my accomplishments.  The whole process, from the composition to drawing to painting, is thrilling!"

From her home now in Phoenix, Arizona, Kim continues to nurture her natural talent with watercolors to convey the complex colors and fragile moods of her subjects.  Through the guidance of her early mentors – George Zien, Diane Maxey, Bill Lundquist, Charles Reid and Ted Nuttall – Kim has developed and enriched her style of capturing the essence of her subjects.  Her award winning work is enjoyed by both private collectors and corporate offices. 

Kim is a signature member of AWS, NWS and WFWS.  She has expanded her work to include instructional and demonstration sessions.  To find out more about 'Studying with Kim' opportunities, click here.
