GRASSHOPPER
Jac Johnson and Patricia Paxson Johnson began their partnership more than a dozen years ago by creating reproductions of southern decoys under the name of Back Bay Decoys and quickly established a loyal following with both decoy dealers as well as collectors. Completely self taught in several disciplines, Jac and Patricia expanded their repertoire to folk art carvings and home accessories with the incorporation of their business, Three Points Design Inc.
The forest and fields around their 90 year old farmhouse provide not only inspiration, but acquired items of yesteryear that can be recycled into modern masterpieces of American folk art. Old tin barn roofs become wings for eagles and crows, or a roof and porch for a birdhouse. Vintage porch railing spindles become bases for carved white doves. Old pennies transform into eyes for folk art fish. This wonderful process of rebirth allows for self expression through their art.
