Ynez Johnston (May 12, 1920 – March 13, 2019) was an American painter, sculptor, printmaker, and educator. Known for her work in painting, printmaking, and mixed media, Johnston was particularly inspired by Byzantine art, as well as Tibetan, Indian, Mexican, and Nepalese art from her extensive travels. Johnston was based in the San Francisco Bay Area in early life, and moved to Los Angeles in 1949.[2]
