Local artist Joan Brown will be presenting twelve new works of art as the featured artist for September in the Gallery at Marina Square. Joan has been painting scenes from her life for over twenty-five years in both watercolors and oil. Her paintings cover a wide range of subjects as she admits to not being able to say “no” to a beautiful place or moment.
“Creating something beautiful that someone will enjoy gives me great pleasure and keeps me at the easel. There is so much beauty in the world and we need beauty, especially now.” Her new works include scenes of the Central Coast including the bay and estuary, landscapes, farmlands, and florals.
Joan’s work has been developed over decades of training with nationally known artists and has won awards in state, regional and international exhibitions. Painting in her unique representational style, her paintings have been described as filled with light, color and emotion. In addition to original paintings, Joan will be offering giclee prints and cards.
You are invited to stop by and meet Joan at an informal reception held on Saturday, September 13 from 3-5 at the Gallery at Marina Square. “I look forward to meeting people who share my love of beauty and its importance in our lives.”
