ARTIST STATEMENT Lines connect to create shapes. Shapes are filled with color. Lights and darks push and pull in a play of dominance. A sense of space emerges. The small spaces interact, communicating with one another. I hear, see, and feel stories when looking into these windows.

Kathleen Johnston is an artist living in Harrisonburg, Virginia. She is originally from Roanoke, VA. She earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Studio Art from James Madison University in 1997.
