Benjamin Johnson
black impressionist painter
Johnson’s art is heavily influenced by his surroundings and personal experiences.
“I am an African American artist born in the vibrant city of Los Angeles and raised amidst the dynamic energy of Compton, California.
Growing up with eight brothers and three sisters in a household where hard work was the cornerstone, I learned the value of resilience and determination.
My canvas reflects the daily lives of African Americans, intricately painted in the style of the Impressionists.
Through strokes of oils, I weave stories of hope and dreams, capturing the essence of a community striving for beauty, strength, and resilience.
My art is a testament to the unseen narratives, celebrating the ordinary moments that resonate with extraordinary depth.
With each brushstroke, I illuminate the vibrancy and complexity of life, showcasing the richness of humanity within my community.
My commitment to portraying these narratives in oils is a homage to African Americans’ heritage, struggles, and triumphs, inviting viewers to embrace the beauty and strength inherent in every brushstroke.”
