Joanna Dole

Natick, MA


Joanna has made a career teaching art, doing mural work, decorative arts and trompe l’oeil, but has returned to painting for the pure pleasure of it. Her passion is in painting portraits and representing nature. She is at home in the natural world and is interested in painting the effects of light on color at varying times of the day. Joanna enjoys exploring the vagrant complexities of watercolor and water -soluble oils letting them do their own things. She has no fear of color and uses it in its full intensities. Faces interest Joanna, and provide a unique challenge to her loose watercolor application. Her intent is to gesticulate without telling the whole detailed story, to present a connection of recognition with the viewer. This is an important part of Joanna’s artistic journey.

Joanna also belongs to the Newton Watercolor Society, the North River Arts in Marshfield Hills and the Florida Keys WC Society where she is on the board. She is also the recipient of numerous awards.
