Jasper Johns

Jasper Johns

Jasper Johns is an American painter and print maker. He mainly uses flags and numbers as the starting points of most of his work. The large majority of his work consists of bright primary colours as the colour scheme. His most famous work includes his pieces 'Map' and 'Three Flags'. 'Three Flags' was sold to the Whitney Museum of American Art in 1980, which at the time was the highest price ever paid for the work of a living artist.
