Her paintings, known for their vibrant colors and naïve art style, often depicted landscapes, animals, and flowers. Seraphine believed that angels and spiritual beings inspired her art. Discovered by art collector Wilhelm Uhde, she gained recognition and had her work exhibited in Paris in 1932.

His portraits often depicted prominent individuals, including members of the upper class and political figures.

Despite facing challenges as an African American artist in a society marked by racial discrimination, Johnson’s talent and perseverance allowed him to establish himself as a notable portrait painter. His legacy is significant not only for his artistic contributions but also for breaking barriers in a time when opportunities for African American artists were limited.

“My family is enjoying the prints that I have posted around the house in strategic places — fridge, breakfast nook, and over bathroom sink. Thank goodness for plastic sleeves! One of my son’s public school friends commented recently that he thought it was really cool that we have rotating art pictures posted around the house. :)”
