George Johanson's long career has unfolded in Portland, where he first studied, then taught, at the Pacific Northwest College of Art. He is renowned as a painter and printmaker with a rich palette of expressionist color. Johanson draws his subject matter from the landscape and the people of Portland. His scenes unfold along the city's riverfront, streets, and hillsides; his characters include a rich assortment of artists, athletes, musicians, dogs, and cats. Rock Creek is fortunate to have several works by Johanson in its collections.
