Hello!  And welcome to my site filled with art and jewelry.  My name is Winona Johnson and I grew up in Wenatchee, Washington.  A small city (well, it used to be small) located in the central part of Washington.  Until I decided to attend Central Washington University in Ellensburg, Washington (an even smaller town) I hadn’t lived anywhere else.  There I studied metalsmithing under Professor Keith Lewis.  Of course I wouldn’t be where I am today without the support of my wonderful parents.  I got my artistic talent from my father and my good business sense from my mother.  I feel so lucky to have such supportive parents.  I now live in Portland, Oregon and loving every minute of it!  Even with all the rain   It’s a beautiful city filled with many talented artists and it’s only a few hours to the beach.  A great place to give so much inspiration.
