About Joan Stratton

Joan Stratton Welcome to Paintings By Joan - Art & Design By Joan P Stratton.

I live in the tropical far north, Cape York, Queensland, Australia. My beautiful home and country is the inspiration for my art. I began my working career in Melbourne, as a trainee in graphic art, technical drawings and drafting for a mining and engineering company. With the diversity of work available to me, I gained vast experience with all manner of mediums prior to the advent of computers. In the mid '80s, as a side-line to my permanent employment, I designed and prepared artwork for record covers (Albums, Eps), promotional ads and flyers for rock bands that marketed their music independently.

I see myself as a mixed media artist, I love every medium and they all call to me at one time or another. I love to create art...it calms me, completes me and takes me away to colour, brush and creativity. Whether putting that brush to paper, canvas or using a digital brush, my mind is totally captured by the piece I am producing.

My most recent works have been digitally drawn, using a mouse which has been quite challenging as it is not at all like using a pen! Though I do find that my design drafting background and years of CAD experience helps me with understanding the computer drawing process and capabilities of the software. I have always enjoyed pushing the boundaries experimenting and where possible use non-traditional methods of creating and developing my artworks. Recently I have been experimenting digitally by incorporating my poetry, photography and existing paintings on canvas with my digital artworks.

For the last couple of years I have been digitally drawing the illustrations for my self-published children s books the Grow With Joe Children s Books, Minnamoolka Station Series which is available via Amazon. I have very much enjoyed drawing the animals of North Queensland!

Art is a personal experience that is seen differently by people from all walks of life. When creating I feel the story of the piece and try to do that story justice. I invite art lovers to enjoy viewing my work and the stories behind them.
