More about the artist

“Charting a new Course”: Acrylic Paintings by Joanne Schoener Scott

A seasoned traveller, I moved to the Northwest from Texas with my husband and children in 2002.

I was born in Venezuela and lived in South America and Europe before immigrating to the United States. My mother’s roots are Spanish and my father’s family came from England to settle in one of the British colonies - Barbados.

The influence of this mixed cultural background is integral to my art.

With a formal education in Fine Art and through many years of dedication to Graphic Design, my work combines bold layouts and colors that express how I feel about what I am painting.

My themes come from the natural world, usually with symbolic meaning from experiences and places that have impacted my life. I work mainly from photos, many of which I take myself. Color plays a key role, evolving sometimes into the main protagonist of the composition. My newer work has traces of abstract elements with color as its focus. There is so much more to discover and explore! I am charting a new course with my art and my career.

Although the medium I use is primarily Acrylic paint, I sometimes include textures from papers and fabrics. The vibrant hues reflect my personality and background. When viewing my art, I hope that the spectator enriches their own journey through the uncharted waters of life.
