It is January of 2023. The stillness of COVID is replaced with the unhappiness of the just re-opened world. Every piece of news seems to suggest we are a mindless race destroying our world and each other. Needing an escape, I started thinking of humanities talent to take everyday things and create beauty. Food, clothing, music made into an art. My technique is to use paper from magazines as you would use paint on canvas. The only rule is to never have the printed image represent what it is. You’ll find a summer drink converted to a dress or a bowl of blueberries as hair. It’s been pure joy!

Biography
Joanna’s art stays away from social or political issues. It focuses instead on everyday moments of beauty and interest, on story telling of who and how we are. Staying away from “doom and gloom” of current news, it brings relief and moments of happiness and freedom. This is not to say, that Joanna is not involved. But instead of bringing more worries, she prefers to underline the human values, capabilities, imagination all present in art throughout history.
Joanna believes in community and is an active member of the Burlington Fine Arts Association where she helps organizing workshops on topics relevant to an artist carrier, like different painting techniques, how to run your business or how to apply to a juried show.
Joanna has been selected into several juried shows on provincial and national levels, and is currently working on approaching galleries to exhibit her work.
