Reginald Johnson, a self-taught artist, is featured in
an exhibition at Judson College. His work is considered "Outsider Art", which
is a term used by art historians to classify artist who have no formal training
and work outside the realm of academics. This type of artwork often appears to
be childlike and playful which is reminiscent of a more simplistic time in our
lives. |

Johnson is from Montgomery, Alabama. All of his art
work is done from memory. His inspiration is whatever he may come into contact
with on a daily basis. His media is of pastels, pencils, and white-out. His art
is quite beautiful in its simplicity. |
