Welcome to T. A. Johnson's Environmental Art. You will find art works created out of the inspiration animals have given her from a young age.

ARTIST STATEMENT

"When I look into an animal's eyes I see their spirit, they have their emotions expressing through to me; I know they too can suffer. Having compassion for them can allow us to free ourselves; a connection to Nature and the animals will create a sense of peace and balance in everyone's lives. I create my works of art in the cause for the preservation of Wildlife, Nature, and Animal Rights."
