Living on the Intracoastal waterway in St. Augustine, Florida, and a cabin in the woods of western North Carolina also provide that endless inspiration. Both keep me in touch with nature, filling my heart and mind with ideas for future works. When I view nature, I see scenes in glass.
Having a passion for art all my life, I’ve released that passion through oil, acrylic and watercolor painting, as well as sculpture. All of which have influenced my glass art.
Drawing was my first outlet, transitioning into painting, selling my first, at 11 yrs of age.
I am drawn to the way glass has a fluid quality and how light just pours through it. I use texture to create depth and even movement in my work. My glass panels are kilnfired from 3 to 22 times to achieve depth and detail. Each freestanding piece displays in a custom stand, to enhance its beauty.
The possibilities in glass are endless, and my journey constantly evolves.
Primarily self taught, I continually research to learn and tweak my process.
My pieces are in private collections throughout the US, Canada, Sweden, Exumas, USVI and Australia.
If you would like me to make something special for you, please contact me. If you have photos of a place of special significance, I will create my version from your photo.
I also incorporate your loved ones or pets ashes into my works to honor them in a special, unique way.

All work is original, and keeping my work updated is difficult on the road, so, I invite you to check my Facebook page, Terri Johansson Art, to see what I’m creating.
Hope to meet you at a show or exhibition!!
