Misty Johnson Pottery

Our friend Misty Johnson is the artist of the month for September at the Artist Community of Zanesville, her work is on exhibit at Bunko Jess Gallery. Misty discovered her deep love of clay while pursuing her degree in art education at Kent State University. After several teaching experiences at local museums Misty developed a love of museum education and is presently the Education Coordinator at Zanesville Museum of Art a post she has held since 2016. She is active in her church and also sits on the board of Goodcity Creatives (Community Development Corp) a faith-based 501 nonprofit arts organization. In her spare time Misty skillfully throws clay at her home studio and creates wonderfully unique pieces of art. We're proud to say she allows us to share some of them with you right here at Foothills Studio. She enjoys experimenting with different shapes, textures and glaze finishes. The resulting wares range from utilitarian to decorative but each is well balanced with excellent symmetry, and hand glazed with so much wonderful color that they even make an art gallery brighter.
