About
Daisy Johnston
email: daisyjohnston20@gmail.com
Daisy Johnston is an artist based in Sunderland, currently studying Fine Art at University. There wasn't a particular moment in her learning that made her choose to study Fine Art, she commented that 'it was more of a slow progression that grew' from her. She has taken part in different exhibitions, some that she was awarded after entering open calls, and some that she arranged and helped curate herself. Her projects, even though they change themes dramatically, often include a heavy connection to bright colours and texture.
