Location: Australia
Painting with a sensitivity that captures a moment in time, its atmosphere, energy, movement and mood using a range of techniques and use of colour – a self-confessed maverick who is self taught – Joanna allows the work to take its own course through her imagination. With a preference for strong colour and thick paint, resulting in astonishing finishes that is garnishing an international audience.
Joanna is a self-taught artist; since being selected to exhibit two of her works in the prestigious 2015 London Biennale in January, her art has swiftly become more and more in demand, garnering international attention and requests from Galleries in Europe and New York to show her work. Described by the European Confederation of Art Critics as “an artist of exceptional talent and an expressive force in today’s contemporary art forum”, her art has caught the eye of highly respected, international art critics and collectors alike. Her pieces sell quickly and this is an artist whose career is rising rapidly.
