Welcome to Joanne Van Genderen Art. I am a mixed media artist living in beautiful upstate New York. My art is influenced by the natural world as well as the mysteries of the past.
My mixed media studio changes according to my current creative obsession. When working on assemblage projects, tools, rusty bits, old photos, and wooden shapes spread out over my art table.
A constant thread throughout my creative journey is my art journaling practice. I view my art journal as a personal sanctuary. Here, I am free to play. I can express my inner thoughts or experiment with new techniques. Mixed media supplies, dyi printing materials, ephemera, collage papers and so much more are integrated into my journals. This creates a happy mess as I work.
I facilitate art journal workshops in several community venues. I greatly enjoy introducing this art form to others. Creating with like-minded people is truly inspirational.
If we haven’t already met, I hope our creative paths cross one of these days.
