The Tacoma Files: Mary K Johnson

DANIEL BLUE: MEET MARY KAY JOHNSON >>>

Tacomafilesmarykayjohns Tacomafilesart Mary Kay Johnson is an artist in the truest sense of the word. 

Recently taking the plunge out of the corporate graphic design world of Costco, she is now counting on her wits and intelligence to navigate the strange and beautiful landscape of freelance design in the modern recessive American Northwest.   

A master of the Photoshop and Illustrator, Mary Kay is also an accomplished painter and figurative illustrator with her own bare hands. This type of hybrid digital/analog artist is rare, usually creative people tend to lean one way or the other, especially when entering into the task of making a living.   

Mary Kay can be found at the Mad Hat Tea Company on a fairly regular basis, scheming with her fellow womanly artisans and making a general political fuss.   Nothing short of a revolution will satisfy her need for a better America, and nothing short of perfection will leave her pen or brush.  Recent MKD Marketing Design projects include: a political gallery instillation in several locations, the past few months worth of Weekly Volcano cover artwork, pieces hung at the Mad Hat's Crow and Cosmic shows and a handful of high end graphic design gigs for illustrious companies and individuals including the design and layout of my Web site and upcoming album.

In a word, Mary Kay ROCKS!
