Jae Johnson
Artist Exchange, Exhibiting Artist
Jae Johnson grew up in the 5th St. SW area of Charlottesville, Virginia. He attended Venable Elementary school where his art instructor and favorite teacher, Ms. Joanne Curry, first pushed him to be the best artist he could be. During elementary school, however, he stopped drawing and didn’t start again until his freshman year at Charlottesville High School. After graduating in 2006, Jae went on to Virginia State University where he majored in studio art.
Jae has numerous pieces in private collections in places ranging from Maryland to Oakland, California.
In Jae's free time, he enjoys entertaining his two children, Ayden and Chase. They share a love for Batman comics, movies, and art. Jae is also an avid Dallas Cowboys fan and memorabilia collector.
