Tina Johnston, originally from Chicago, has lived in the Albany, NY area for 40 years. A member of the Schenectady Art Society, she has exhibited at Cobleskill’s 88th National Exhibition, the Pruyn House, the Stockade Art Show, the Spencertown Academy, and other venues.

Retiring from teaching High School Nutrition and Family classes in 2014 allowed her to spend much more time on her art. She took her first night class in art at Guilderland HS in 1992, and took a watercolor class in New Zealand in 1994. Recently she converted from watercolorist to fabric artist, still using water technique, but now with dyes on silk. She finds the luminosity of silk mesmerizing and the capricious movement of liquid dyes infectious. Her goal is to provide visual serenity using gentle lines and melting colors.
