Johanna Schor
I paint the places that stay with me.
Come into my world of color, memory, and imagination.
A LITTLE ABOUT ME
I have always been curious about what a life can hold.
I spent 45 years as a psychologist, listening closely to people and the ways we change.
At 75, I began painting. Oil gave me another way to follow a memory, a color, or a place I could only imagine.
FROM MY EASEL
Some places stay
with me in color.
Sometimes I begin with a place I have seen. Sometimes the place only exists in my imagination. I follow what feels worth keeping.
A few paintings to begin with. There is more to discover.
Spend time with more of my paintingsBEYOND MY STUDIO
I want to share
this work with you.
I make these paintings because I love making them. I also want them to leave my studio, meet people, and find their own place in the world.

IN THE MAKING
I like seeing where
the color leads me.
Painting gives me room to be surprised. I can begin with a landscape, then let memory and imagination take their part.
A THOUGHT I WANT TO SHARE
“The opportunity is there
to change your mind.
You can.”
I began painting at 75. I hope my story gives you room to try something that has been calling you.

FROM ME TO YOU
I would love to know
what stayed with you.
Maybe you found a painting you keep returning to. Maybe you want to talk about showing my work. Either way, I would be glad to hear from you.
