Hello, I'm Jo Johnston - I love drawing and turning ideas into dynamic visual work. If you have an idea or project that needs illustrations, feel free to contact me.

I'm originally from the U.K., where I studied art and also qualified as an Occupational Therapist. In 2007 I moved with my family to Berlin. Since living in Berlin I have continued creating and exhibiting art, have taught art to children and adults, and worked supporting children and teenagers with disabilities both within and outside of the school setting. |

Drawing is my way of fixing things down when life is moving too fast. It helps me to see and experience the world we live in more clearly. I love to work on developing visual interpretations of written word, memories, ideas, have worked on producing artwork for theatre, and recently been exploring comic / graphic novel formats.

Alongside this, together with creative friend Marcel Kröner, I have been running the The Little Window Galerie. An ongoing project since 2016, it is allegedly the smallest art gallery in Berlin. Each month one piece of work from a different artist is exhibited in our “Schaufenster” which is on the busy Berliner Strasse in Pankow for everyone to enjoy. The concept being to bring a wide range of art to people from all walks of life at no expense to them.
