We will have music group Foinn Sliabh playing Celtic music for the reception with snacks and some cow shaped cookies!!!

Artist Statement:

I am struck by beauty wherever I go, in open space, in animals and in people. With my art I hope to convey this beauty and connect the viewer with the inspiration I felt when I first saw it, whether it be the raw colors of a sunset, in the soulful eyes of an animal, or the emotion in a human face.

I paint the world realistically as I see it and my medium is oil paint due to its intensity and changeability.

Biography:

Joni grew up in California and studied painting in high school. She married Jim and they began growing their family, moving to Colorado in 1991. When their youngest of 6 was in high school, Joni was able to spend more time pursuing her art.
