By consciously tuning herself into the natural world, Toronto-based artist Johanna Reynolds creates dynamic abstractions using oil and acrylic paint. Reynolds’ work is known for elegant, contemplative layers interrupted by moody, gestural bursts of unexpected colour.

In this episode Johanna Reynolds talks to Carla, founder of Artifier, about how she first discovered her love for painting, where these abstracted landscapes come from and she even takes us on a little tour around her home studio as we dive into the collective experience of being in confinement and how this period could leave a long lasting effect in our lives for the better.

In this episode Johanna Reynolds joins Artifier’s Carla Rojas for a chat about discovering her love of painting, her creative processes and adapting to working isolation. Diving into the collective experience of being in confinement, Johanna also shares a tour of her home studio and showcases some of her favourite pieces from fellow artists along the way.
