Leawood Fine Art is proud to present the art of Doug Johnson

Johnson's paintings reflect a close attention to the craftsmanship, design and composition for which he is acclaimed.  When viewed from a distance, they appear photo-realistic; however, upon close inspection interesting details begin to emerge.  There are complex areas of juxtaposed fragments, with sharp, clearly defined recurring shapes - arcs, horns, crescents, chevrons and  compressed or elongated polygons - which may translate as stylized geometric pointillism.

The overall effect is astonishing and spiritual, as Doug Johnson's work remains modern yet ancient, naive yet meticulous, chaotic yet orderly.
