Artist Victoria Johnson is a native Southern Californian who is inspired by the place she calls home. An independent designer, commercial illustrator and an award-winning fine artist in the digital medium, since entering her first painting in a statewide competition at age seven, to earning a degree in Commercial Art and Design, creativity has been her calling. 

Sketching and painting had always been a hobby, but not long after her career as an independent designer blossomed, her brushes and canvases were traded for design softwares and hard deadlines. In 2018 two things happened; adverse changes in the industry made her question the future of being an independent designer, and someone gifted her a digital pen and sketchpad. The Sketchie Beast was unleashed. She started digitally sketching and pixel painting with an intensity and focus she could only describe as supernatural.

Since putting digital pen to pad six years ago, she has participated in numerous gallery showings throughout Southern California to Northern California, El Paso TX to Bethlehem PA, as well as a few international online exhibitions. She has had three solo exhibitions, four public art installations, and has illustrated several children’s books, two of which are award-winning. She is a board member of the La Habra Art Association.
