JO-ANN ACEY
Acey writes of her work… “Although there are recognizable images that lend themselves to land and sea scapes, the real essence lies in the symbolism of each work. The paintings and drawing are visual diaries documenting memories, personal events and creating magical places. The artist speaks of of her works as quick glimpses or telescopic views of everyday life. The works are at once real and imaginative.” Acey‘s work explores several media including oil, watercolor and pastel and printmaking. Spontaneity and energy are always important elements. One is instantly invited on a journey and experiences the vast openness of the sea or the quiet, softness of a breeze.”
