GRETTA JOHNSON . .
I would define my take on Gretta, as someone who comes on real slow, as in low-key,
and then grows on ya . . real BIG !!!
Born in 1985, and hailing from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, (funny how many artists are coming from Wisconsin these days !!), Gretta currently lives and works in Brooklyn. She received a B.F.A. from RISD in 2008.
Her most recent solo show was at P*L*HK /PARIS LONDON HONG KONG, located in Chicago,
this past summer / June 1 – July 7, 2018.
check out: her page, ‘Gretta Johnson, New Paintings’ . . on their website !!
