Viewpoint – Rebecca Johnson
BEARING FRUIT: Rebecca Johnson is a member of one of Fort Wayne’s most renowned artistic families and, for much of her adulthood, she helped sell other people’s art. It wasn’t until the pandemic, however, that she began making art of her own. “I was intimidated,” she said. Despite these reservations, Johnson had success out of the gate and is now a full-time artist. Johnson lives in West Central with her longtime partner, Jake Patten (also a well-known artist). The duo will show their work in several shows in the coming months. instagram.com/beckyjohnson.816
