JOAN STANICH
For many years my artistic
expression had been in interior design and gardening. In the early
‘90’s, I began watercolor painting, moving next into acrylics and,
more recently, oils. I love using the luscious pigments in vibrant
colors, color mixing and achieving varied effects with thick paint
and pallet knife application in landscapes and architecture. I
enjoy the challenge of realism and paint with an impressionistic
flair, often in high values contrasted by deep rich darks.
A sense
of history and appreciation of nature are reflected in the subject
matter I choose: gardens, parks and quaint villages, with entryways
and passages as repeated themes--garden gates, paths, doors and
windows. I work from strong compositions primarily on location or
from various photographs of Kenosha, Racine and Door County, WI, and
European travels.
I
desire to use my God-given creative abilities to make a difference
and positively impact others through joyful, uplifting artistic
expressions.
