Karen Johnston, President

Johnston Arts was founded to bring a new level of service to both fine art galleries and artists, by eliminating the time, difficulty and expense of finding and launching talented emerging artists.

Johnston Arts’ mission is to market beautiful works of art by an exceptional group of individuals who are dedicated to their profession, and to create an enjoyable process for all involved: artists, galleries and collectors.

Karen Johnston, President of Johnston Arts, has worked in the fine art arena for over 15 years in every capacity. During her early training as an artist, she discovered that working with people and art was a far more fulfilling process for her than creating it. With a love of the work, a deep appreciation for the dedication of talented artists, uncanny business acumen and a reputation for forging lasting relationships, Johnston bridges what is most often a divide between the artist and the collector.

Over the span of her career, Johnston has served as a premier Art Consultant, Gallery Director in both hometown and resort locations, and as President and CEO of a national publisher and gallery group. She amalgamates these experiences in her discernment for fine talent and business opportunity, and her unparalleled attention to gallery and collector needs.

In addition to bringing new talent to market, Johnston Arts has joined forces with several national publishers to provide galleries with the best in limited edition graphics and sculpture.
