“Photo Artistry” – “Distorted Realism”
This is a new language in artistry. It is the pushing of photography beyond the boundaries of the conventional. Each of Joan’s new works originates from a photo, she recognized anything photograph can be pushed further. An innovative way of layering, blending and applying various effects and filters, thus allowing her to create limited edition works that are printed on Fine Art canvas. Joan’s newest collection was inspired while on safari in Africa.
This new and innovative technique allows the ability to capture and emit, bold, beautiful and vibrant colours. It interprets and conveys her vision and gives her the freedom to create works that intrigue and allows room for the viewer’s interpretation.

Artist Statement

I strive to document and educate myself and others about my rich culture and heritage and have endeavored over the course of my journey to present an artistic, positive, presentation of the African Diaspora. -jb
