Artwork Description

The special piece took me 2 years to complete. I would continually be stuck and pop it away for a month or two until i found some near inspiration to continue.

The long pauses of contemplation between painting sessions reflect in my own life and also in this piece. Asking myself the big life questions... Who am i? Where do i want to be, What do i stand for?

Im not sure I have those answers just yet but l am sure that this piece is ready for its new home. It is a striking piece that will be a statement wherever she is hung.

The different textures and contrast of colours reflects the diversity of our beauftul earth and also while we are all very different, we are all very much the same.

Artist Bio

Joanna has always been gifted with a creative flair and has travelled down many different avenues to satisfy her deep need to create. Some mediums she has trialled include macramé, ceramics, drawing, painting and acrylic pouring.

She is obsessed with the use of different textures and has recently been exploring the use of alcohol inks and resin. She loves to use a mix of media on various materials such as canvas and wood or metal panels.
She is passionate about incorporating 24 karat gold and real silver into her pieces, playing on her love for all things shiny. She loves the luxurious feel that gold brings to her art.

Whilst raising her three beautiful children has been her main priority over the last 14 years, Joanna has also run a successful cake decorating business for the last 8 of them.
2020 has certainly thrown up many challenges for her (like everyone), including turning 40! Navigating the ups and downs of the day to day, Joanna has realised that life is short and there is no point in wasting time doing the things that don’t truly fulfil her spirit. She now spends every waking moment dreaming, experimenting, living and breathing all things art.

Joanna is so excited to be able to put her true passion first and share her art with the world.
