Thomas Berger Johnson
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Thomas Berger Johnson (c.1890, 1968) Nebraska artist, Post-Impressionist painter, metal sculptor, and drawer. He was known to have bold impasto, juxtaposing colors to create movement and an almost shimmering effect, within his paintings. Now most of his work resides with the Nebraska History Society in Lincoln, Nebraska, which was given to them by Mrs. Johnson after his death. The Nebraska History Society found the work important because his paintings represented locations in Nebraska accurately and depicted some locations that no longer existed.[1][2][3]
