Artists KELLY BUNTIN JOHNSON and RHETT JOHNSON * in Weston, MO this Saturday *
Kelly Buntin Johnson and husband Rhett Johnson, are a free-spirited artist duo whose creative talents are characterized by clever originality. Working from their hilltop in Dearborn, MO {just a stone’s throw from my own front door} Kelly and Rhett are individual artists whose ingenious wares will inspire you…
Kelly Buntin Johnson, a self-described mixed media artist/preservationist, revamps common cast-aways to become objects d’art such as beaded and hand-sewn jewelry, figures, holy emblems, and relics.
On Kelly’s www, Diddy-Wa-Diddy.com you will find an EXTENSIVE GALLERY plus a link to Kelly’s BLOG {the blog is a must read full of art, nature, spiritual inspiration and “words”}. Here is a small glimpse of Diddy-Wa-Diddy.com …
Before we move on to RHETT - the other half of this talented duo - here are a couple of books where Kelly’s art can be found…
Rhett Johnson is a sculptor whose broad talents have produced a gallery of art that stretches from metal art - to re-purposed car hoods - to stain glass - then to carved Santas. Using ‘art supplies’ such as wood, glass, metals, and found obects, Rhett creates art that looks you straight in the eye and won’t let you forget what you saw. Much of his art can be seen at RhettJohnson.com. Here is a small bite of his origniality…
Want your own piece of art?? Well, here’s the really good part…
