OUR HISTORY, OUR VOICES PROJECT
The Shannon Deana Johnson Exhibit
About Her Exhibit…
I am a Knoxville, TN-based mixed media painter.
My process is intuitive.
I work to create a balance between harmony and contrast, simplicity and accumulation, and stillness and motion.
As the painting progresses, I often add more concrete elements such as botanical or figurative shapes.
In this latest series called, “Story of a Girl,” I have been exploring the use of imagery connected to the idea of femininity and aspects of it that are meaningful to me.

More Exhibits
The Susan Verekar Exhibit
I love everything to do with color. My art often embraces raw emotion, transformation, coming into one’s power, and a balance between light and dark. I paint with acrylics and oils and play with alcohol inks. I started painting a year ago as I was struggling to find my identity after becoming a mom. It started as a creative outlet but become a way to find myself again.
The Megan Cook Exhibit
Entrepreneurship is no joke. It's HARD work. Long hours, endless networking, small business admin, the list goes on and on. And, sometimes, being a woman in entrepreneurship is that much harder. But what nourishes and sustains me is the community I've built through it. I love that I can collaborate with other women entrepreneurs, supporting each other's dreams and work in community with each other rather than in competition with each other.
The Alaina René Williams Exhibit
This submission is about a production I hosted for women of color! It was to inspire them and others about how confident, radiant and strong we (as women) can be! This production was to support, honor and recognize these women who have built a life of strength, confidence and success.
