    Dolly Johnson's ArtKites

    Artist works hard to earn her wings


    Local artist Dolly Cahill Johnson has her head in the clouds. Far from being an uncomplimentary remark about her emotional state, this is, in fact, a complimentary observation about her inborn creative powers. Just as a kite riding the winds, Johnson has learned to harness these powers and use them to travel to new and colorful places and spaces. Over the years, more than 1,500 mixed-media creations have been born in her bright and airy home studio: emotive paintings she calls JourneyScapes, carefree ArtKites and various other works of art, including many specially commissioned pieces.   More
