libby johnson

Libby Johnson earned her Bachelors of Fine Art and her Masters of Fine Art from Louisiana State University. In 2000 she opened Studio dei Leoni and began teaching group classes on painting, abstraction, and the structure of the human form. Previously she has taught at Anderson Ranch in Snowmass, Colorado and Arrowmont School of Arts and Crafts in Gaitlinburg, Tennessee.

Johnson is a painter who uses realistic depictions of nature as a foundation for expressing thoughts, mysteries and feelings that are intertwined with those images. She uses oil paint because of its organic quality and intense but natural colors.

She’s shown currently at David Lusk Gallery in Memphis, Tennessee, and has had exhibitions at Harris Gallery in Houston, Texas, and Soren Christiensen in New Orleans, Louisiana. She has work in 15 different collections including those of Chevron Oil Company, Houston, Texas, Pepsico International, Dallas Texas, Louisiana Arts & Science Museum, Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and the New Orleans Museum of Art, New Orleans, Louisiana.
