Biography
Joanne Makin is a contemporary oil painter working from her studio in the West Midlands. She has exhibited at The Mall Galleries, London with The Society of Women Artists, The Royal Society of Marine Artists and ING The Discerning Eye. She is also a regular exhibitor with The Royal Birmingham Society of Artists.
Drawing on her experience as a narrative illustrator, Joanne focusses on both static and dynamic scenes using oil paint on canvas as her chosen medium. Her work captures a snapshot of life in media res (in the middle of things). Her emphasis is on the human condition, whether depicting a sense of highly charged self-consciousness or calm stoicism in everyday life.
Artist Statement
Conveying the various and often incongruous complexities of our shared human characteristics with a quiet sensitivity, Joanne initiates a connection with the viewer of a shared emotion past or present.
