Jo-Ann Golenia

Biography

As an avid textile and watercolor artist, Jo-Ann Golenia has worked with the arts all her life. She currently exhibits in international venues, including the International Quilt Festival in Houston, Texas, the Carnegie Center for Art and History in New Albany, Indiana, and the Schweinfurth Memorial Art Center, Auburn, New York, as well as locally in the Art Uptown Gallery, Sarasota Orchestra Harmony Gallery, Art Center Sarasota, and the Venice Art Center. Jo-Ann earned her BS and MS, teaching for sixteen years before devoting herself full time to her art.

Artist's Statement

The world around me is my constantly changing source of inspiration. My abstracted work is based on this natural environment. The everyday surroundings present us with incredible, what I call, hidden beauty. By looking very closely or by changing the colors of what we see, a whole new vista is formed. The three-dimensional shapes of objects, when seen closely, carefully, are sturdy, curving, familiar yet new and strange.

The intent for my work is to show the subtleties, splendor, and conflict of the world around us. Every object has remarkable aspects to it. If I can show just some of them, let just some small part of them proffer a sense of previously unnoticed recognition, I have reached my goal.
