May+June exhibit Joyce Jonté
We're so excited to feature watercolor paintings by local artist Joyce Jonté. Fourteen works are on display in our shop windows through June. And the three lovely pieces below will be available as free 12x18" posters.
"18th Street Magnolia" by Joyce Jonte
Joyce Jonté:
"Born in Berkeley, California in 1957, I moved to Arcata from the Bay Area in 1974 to study art at HSU, graduating in 1979 with emphases in representational drawing, landscape painting, and life drawing. I have pursued a passionate study of watercolor technique over the ensuing years. I am well known in Northern California for my figurative and floral works.
I facilitate the Arcata Life Drawing Circle at StewART Studios in Arcata (drawing.nu) which meets three times a week. I work as an art educator in local schools and at my studio at StewART Studios."
