About Joan
Welcome! In lieu of straight painting or drawing consider mixed media which includes it all: collage, paints, dry media. ink, printmaking and more! Very user friendly especially for beginners. All levels welcome.
A mixed media adventure for groups and individuals! The thrill of students gaining confidence making art and having fun! Instruction freqency and duration flexible.
My approach accompanies you outside your comfort zone. Helping you see creativity from a fresh perspective and adding new dimension to life.
In the words of one of my long term students:
"Joan is a magical being. She creates a space that you would never enter on your own, Ninty minutes later you are well on your way to a creation that unconceals a latent possibility into fruition. Astounding! Andrew Harvey (7/21/2025)
Invocation to the Muses for inspiration and confidence. Slide show tailored to the lesson's topic for examples and idea generation. Demonstration. Guidance every step of the way; or not! You set the preferences.

Determine your interest, art experience and goals. Create an intention for classes.
Consider the following questions:
Abstraction or representational?
Drawing or Painting?
Watercolor or Pastel? Or, both!
Mostly adults, often with little experience; or, regular life long learners checking out different instructors for a good fit! I welcome all ages (18+) and experience levels.
Fun, and flexibility!
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Are you interested in abstraction or realistic/representational images?
What subject matter do you prefer? For example, still life, landscape, flowers (botanicals), figure, portrait, etc
Who are your favorite artists? Why?
Do you prefer painting (wet media); or drawing (dry media, including pastels, pencil, etc.); or mixed media?
What were favorite childhood activities? For example, I loved cutting out paper dolls and their clothes. It is not surprising that I often work in collage with lots of scissorwork!

Joan is a magical being. She creates a space that you would never enter on your own. 90 minutes later, you are well on your way to a creation that unconceals a latent possibility into fruition. Astounding!
I have learned so much from my studies with Joan. Every class is an exploration, an exciting adventure! I’m having fun discovering my inner-artist!
Inspiring, fun and incredibly informative.
Joan creates the artistic space which induces a creative spark that otherwise would be missing.

The cost is $40 for an hour lesson, including a demonstration, co-working and critique (what's working/what's not working), practice and suggestions for homework.
I advocate the approach of three books:
1. Drawing on the right side of your brain
2. The natural way to draw
3. The Artist Way
They would be a good start to a library of Art Books for reference going forward.
In addition to being a lifelong artist, I am A NY certified librarian/school media specialist and will support you as an artist and a library patron.
Thank you for your interest. Joan
