Joanne was born in Cumbria and studied at Carlisle College of Art and now, lives in Worcestershire.
The rugged coastline of the North West and the wild fells of the Lake District still have a strong influence on her work.
Although working with a variety of media Joanne finds that drawing and sketching are most important.
Her sketchbooks are her visual diaries, recording subject matter and her relationship with the landscape, giving her
a "sense of place."
Painting is an inner journey of expression and feeling for the subject. Joanne's paintings as well as depicting mood,
emotion and atmosphere have richness and depth.
Joanne became an elected member of the Royal Birmingham Society of Artists in 2005.
An elected Member of the Society of Women Artists in 2008.
