Years of formal training with contemporary artists helped her develop a unique style that reflects what she values and experiences. Her figurative subjects often capture moments of quiet contemplation, while her landscapes glow with light, color, and emotion. Joan’s work in oils and watercolors has earned acclaim in state, national, and international competitions. “For me, art is still about beauty. We respond to beauty, and whether it serves to calm, to delight, or to inspire, beauty is essential. It is an antidote to incendiary talk shows, dystopian, violent movies, and even pandemics. The natural world and the fellow species that live with us never fail to leave me in awe. What we artists strive for will be, at its very best, still an imitation of the world we live in. Sometimes I see a scene that lives […]

Artists’ Statement: “I knew early on, that art would somehow become an intrinsic part of my life! “Although a career path would lead me in a different direction, I worked hard, painted when time permitted and raised a family.  I moved to the Central Coast of California, where I fell in love with rolling hills that reach to the sea and began to pursue lifelong dreams of becoming a professional artist. The local landscape has had a profound impact on the artwork I create in oil. “My style is representational, utilizing a glazing technique of many thin layers to create a translucent effect that provides depth and emanates light from my paintings.  My current body of work has been inspired by the powerful movement of the sea and magnificent coastline.”During the last thirty-five years. I’ve become an award winning artist, a member of The Portrait Society of America and Oil Painters of America.”

Her primary medium is wool but she also incorporates various other fibers into her art. Her work is created both using wet felting and needle felting techniques. “I love the tactile nature of the fibers and their ability to lend themselves to both the realistic and playful. Needle felting allows for sculpting the fibers and creating 3-D pieces which speaks to my interest in engineering and natural forms. It is a wonderful to sit with the fibers and create every day and the added level of joy experienced by sharing with others heightens the creative process.”

As a California resident artist, she gravitates toward painting nearby coastal scenes and landscapes from National Parks. While most of her works are studio-based, Hema also paints en plein air whenever possible. An avid traveler and photographer, she spends significant time photographing beautiful landscapes during her travels. These photos often serve as scenic reminders of the places she visits and later become subjects for her studio paintings. When not traveling, you’ll frequently find her painting colorful flowers and critters from her garden. “Painting has always been a form of escape for me,” Hema shares. “It gives me a sense of joy, peace, hope, and a welcome break from the daily commotion of our busy lives. Through these impressionistic paintings, I hope to capture the spirit and beauty of the scene with vivid colors and textures.”
