About Gail Johnson

Born in Boston, Massachusetts, Gail spent her formative years in upstate New York with an avid interest in art since her teens taking instruction at Munson-Williams-Proctor Arts Institute in Utica, NY. She attended Boston University, then moved to Toronto taking preparatory courses at Central Technical School and Ontario College of Art for admission into University of Toronto’s Medical Illustration Degree Program.

Moving with her husband to Vancouver Island, British Columbia, she furthered her art education at Vancouver Island University in Nanaimo. Although she continued drawing and painting, her energies were directed to the creation of their family’s successful thirty year organic farm and market business.  In 2000, Gail focused on her art career and has been painting full time since.

Considered a leader in her field, Gail pushes the limits of contemporary landscape with her powerful and compelling pieces. Confident stroke and bold, color saturated palette often define her acrylics and oils on stretched canvases.  Sensitively rendered life drawings as well as smaller landscapes are rendered in her watercolour and pastel works.

Gail paints intuitively, referencing familiar imagery often inspired by:  her years of organic farming, Vancouver Island’s coastline, wildflower filled Canadian Rocky Mountain vistas, international travels, meandering road trips, and imaginative still life subjects.

Travelling in Europe has given her opportunities to paint en plein aire in Tuscany, Florence, Venice, Spain, England, Provence and Paris, France. 

"I feel profound gratitude to be inspired by so much to paint - such beauty and rich, grounded experiences to draw from.    I follow my brush . . . and taste the color."

An active member of the Federation of Canadian Artists since 2003, achieving her Signature Status in 2006, Gail’s award-winning work has been featured in countless group and Solo exhibitions, and is collected internationally.  She is a popular workshop instructor, well known for enthusiastically sharing her knowledge and passion for painting. 

Gail’s work is represented by Mountain Galleries three locations in Fairmont Hotels:  Jasper Park Lodge, and Banff Springs Hotel in Alberta, and Chateau Whistler in BC. Peninsula Gallery in Sidney, BC and Aquamaris Art Gallery in Duncan, BC represent her work on Vancouver Island.  She can be visited as a frequent Artist in Residence at Mountain Galleries locations, as well as painting occasionally on-site at Peninsula and Aquamaris.
