Angela Johnson will feature her bold abstract watercolor prints along with cards from her Soulful, Salty, and Vanilla card collections. Whether you want unique and affordable art to display in your home or office or a card to tell someone they matter, you'll find something you love at October's Ogden Art Stroll at the Mercantile.Bio:
When Angela Johnson picked up a paintbrush at 40, she didn’t expect it to evolve into "Hey, Wiggle Butt," a card and print line named after her rescue dog (fellow dog lovers will get the joy behind the name). Her bold abstract watercolor pieces, often with metallic accents, carry a deeper message: a reminder that every person matters.
Before discovering her love for watercolor, Angela experimented with other forms of expression—acrylics, alcohol ink, pottery, and jewelry design. Her jewelry even caught the eye of design magazines and graced the red carpet at a Hollywood premiere.
As a neurodivergent entrepreneur, Angela started her business during the 2008 economic crash, proving that late bloomers and those who don’t fit the mold can thrive. Art became a lifeline for her mental health, and she openly shares this to help break the stigma and inspire others on their own mental health journeys.
When Angela isn’t creating or consulting, you’ll find her soaking in live music, gazing at the Wasatch Mountains, or adding yet another plant to her garden. She lives in Ogden with her partner and their spirited 15-year-old rescue dog, Sadie—affectionately known as “Wiggle Butt.”
