JoAnn, a native New Englander, now resides in Eastham where she had spent many summers vacationing. After raising a family in Connecticut and pursuing a career in nursing, she is enjoying the outer Cape lifestyle and its natural beauty.

Enthusiasm for seascapes and still life oil painting is demonstrated in JoAnn's work as well as expressing both subtle and dynamic interpretations of local scenes. Her inspiration and creativity reflect many travels in the country and abroad.

She is a member of the Eastham Painters Guild, the Creative Arts Center in Chatham and the Cape Cod Art Association in Barnstable. Her work has been exhibited at these venues and at the weekly Eastham Summer art shows.
