New Seascape & Skyscape Coastal Paintings
"Colorful Memories", Original painting is 24"x18"- click image for prints
For years, my creative journey has been filled with wildlife art--over 5,000 published pieces, each one celebrating the beauty of nature’s creatures. But lately, my heart has been drawn elsewhere… to the vast, open landscapes where the sky takes center stage.
There’s something profoundly peaceful about standing beneath an endless sky, with nothing but the land, sea, and clouds stretching out before you. No distractions. No noise. Just space to breathe, reflect, and reconnect with the quiet beauty of the world above.
My expansive sky paintings are about that feeling--the serenity of solitude, the freedom of wide-open spaces, and the gentle reminder that nature’s beauty is enough. I still love wildlife, and perhaps some may find their way into my new paintings someday. But for now, I’m simply enjoying the scene itself—the way light dances across the horizon and the sky whispers its ever-changing story, and I hope you will enjoy it as much as I do. --Jai Johnson, Artist

The sky, with its ever-changing colors, shapes, and moods, serves as a constant wellspring of inspiration. It becomes my sanctuary, offering a sense of freedom transcending the physical constraints of the everyday. In the vastness above, I discover a limitless expanse where the chaotic urban landscape fades into insignificance, replaced by the serene beauty of clouds dancing in the open sky. I use soft pastels...

I’m Jai Johnson—an artist, photographer, and passionate observer of the natural world. Whether I’m out in the wild capturing the spirit of birds and animals through my lens or painting the vast, open skies where they roam, my work is driven by a deep love for nature’s beauty and emotion.
My wildlife art focuses on capturing the unique expressions and personalities of each creature, preserving those fleeting moments that make them so special. My landscape paintings, inspired by the endless skies and wide-open spaces, reflect the mood and atmosphere of nature’s grand stage. I paint places where the soul can breathe. Working across various mediums—and often blending them—I embrace creative freedom, allowing each piece to evolve without limits or expectations. |
