This is an image of Joanne Grant. She is shown sitting in front of an easel painting an outdoor city scene. She is shown from her shoulders upward. She is smiling and has long brown hair and bangs.

There is a special feeling when faced with a blank page or canvas. Starting from nothing and bringing joy and beauty into existence, all the while telling a story, is where absolute joy is found. When it is complete, and the story is told, only then will I breathe deep and set the piece free, to connect with another soul. For this person to then also feel happiness and meaning when art comes into their life.

This is why I do what I do.

-Joanne Grant, Artist
