Joan Blond: Surgency

Joan Blond is an abstract expressionist and contemporary artist who works from her home studio at Phillip Island in Victoria and is creatively motivated by the location and the relaxed atmosphere it offers.

Joan also takes many cues from contemporary design and her love of interior design. Joan loves painting generous blocks of colour and her style is vibrantly expressionistic, often incorporating energetic line work and she loves dots to add texture. Joan mostly paints using acrylics with substance which add texture to her work and at times works with oil paint. She also loves experimenting with different mediums & washes.
