About Me
- Portrait Painting By Johanna Spinks
- Award-winning Los Angeles portrait artist Johanna Spinks knows faces inside out. For years she worked as a top Hollywood makeup artist to the stars applying her artistry to many famous faces before they went under the lights. Over the years she became increasingly frustrated by the demands of the business and decided to devote herself full-time to her love of classical portraiture - still painting the face, but from now on exclusively in oil on canvas. Her work, which also includes still life and landscape, has won her national acclaim being featured recently in The New York Times, and earning juried recognition, awards and show acceptances from various art institutions including American Artist Magazine, Art Talk, Oil Painters of America and The California Art Club. Her affiliations also include The National Arts Club, Allied Artists of America, The Artists Fellowship of New York, The Players’ Club of New York, The Portrait Society of America (Johanna is proud to serve as its CA State Ambassador), and The Portrait Society of Atlanta.
