I’ve spent the last several years in an attempt to create paintings without pretense, which you can read more about right here. During that time I took a break from exhibiting new work, but now I’m getting back to showing. Anyway, here’s the bio:
Clay Johnson was born and raised in Durham, NC, where he studied art and art history at Duke University, receiving a B.A. degree in 1985. He then worked for three years as assistant to painter Robert Natkin in Connecticut and New York City. After several years each in San Francisco and Washington, DC, he now lives and works in Corvallis, OR.
