				  |  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. |  |  |
