Working on shaped wooden panels, Joan McKee paints trompe l'oeil works that depict the view through an open window. Windows provide a feeling of refuge from the world while offering access to that world. This appeals to Joan's interest in the ability of art to both conceal and reveal the meanings that are found in our physical surroundings. The open window invites the viewer to participate in the exploration of the natural or manmade surroundings seen through the frame provided by the artist.
Joan has a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in painting and a Master in Fine Arts in painting and graphics, both from Bowling Green State University. She taught art in public schools and was an Assistant Professor of Fine Art until retirement. She now maintains a full time studio doing freelance and commission paintings. Her work has been shown in exhibits across the country.
This free exhibit will run through the end of May and is open to the public during business hours at the Perrysburg Municipal Building: 9am-5pm, Monday - Friday, For purchase information or other inquiries, please contact the Perrysburg Area Arts Council.
