Fostering creativity in our children.

Cathy Ann Johnson was born and raised in Columbus, Ohio. In assisting the shaping of her life, were her parents Clinton and Lucille Johnson who raised five children of which she is the middle child. Cathys mother ran an in home daycare center in the urban community. It was the encompassment of Cathys upbringing and environmental influence that inspired the beautiful, warm imaginative images and situations we experience in her work. Many of the children brought to her home were abandoned or were unofficial foster children. Cathy has always had a passion to draw and a love for childrens literature. She would frequently sneak to the neighborhood library to read and draw as many childrens books as she could. Many times her unauthorized disappearances would be rewarded with unwelcome consequences from her mother.
