Theresa Marie Johnson

Theresa Johnson is a wife, mother, artist, and writer. She and her husband David, photographer and owner of Star Prairie Gallery, live in Wisconsin where they enjoy spending time with their family. Theresa, artist and owner of Star Prairie Studio, spent years working as a business analyst for the State of Minnesota before becoming disabled in 2009 by Lupus, Sjogren’s Syndrome and Rheumatoid Arthritis . Her writings speak to life lived with a chronic and incurable disease. Her paintings represent that journey, often times exploding with energy and color, symbolizing qualities such as beauty, strength, vulnerability and grace. She is not limited to one particular style, but displays work rich with honesty. Her artwork resonates with many, drawing them into their own inner story and the expression of that story. “One Moment One Life is all that we have. Art brings us to that moment and demands of us a presence. In today’s busy world, being able to offer that moment to others is my greatest reward.” Theresa’s blogs, One Moment One Life and Star Prairie Studio, are the creative expression of her own personal story and the journey she is on.
