   Johnny Karwan is a San Francisco-based artist and designer with a passion for all things natural, simple, colorful and exotic.

    A graduate of the San Francisco Art Institute and a professional artist of over thirty years, Johnny Karwan has created an enormous body of work that has ranged broadly across a wide and diverse array of sizes and media.

    The artist's work has ranged from tropical airport banners to monumental murals of twenty foot high sunflowers, to elaborately painted background scenes for animated films and television and, of course, to broad commercial and licensed applications.  His beautiful works of assemblage have been exhibited in prestigious galleries and museums.

    Recently the artist has focused his attention on creating designs which depict the natural themes of birds, bugs, fruits, flowers and sea life, all of them unique, colorful, vibrant and appealing.

    The artist has licensed his work on an array of products including greeting cards, paper products, ceramics, needlecraft, journals and diaries, apparel, fabrics and fine art prints.

    Porterfield's Fine Art Licensing is delighted to be able to represent an artist and designer of this magnitude and stature into the fields of internal and external home decor and furnishings, home fabrics of all types, prints and wall decor, stationery and paper goods, and any products that require bright, bold, colorful and intensely decorative works of beauty.
