BIOGRAPHY - JOAN CARROLL

I was a photo retoucher in Manhattan during my working life.  
That's when we did it by hand, before Photoshop took over.
During that time, I studied with Burt Silverman, and at the Art Students League.
When my husband and I retired we moved to Pennsylvania,
and here I started painting in pastels before switching to oils.
Pennsylvania is so picturesque and rich in all kinds of art.
 
In 2011, I was featured in the Artist Magazine in “11 Amazing Artists Over 60”
In 2016, I was thrilled to be accepted into the Non Members Art Show at the Salmagundi Art Club, 
where I won the Jack Richeson Award.
At the Catherine Lorillard Wolfe Art Club 2016 Open Exhibition,  I won the Dorothy Kenney Award.
Both of those are in Manhattan.
 
On the advice of other artists here, I joined Facebook where I’m learning so much.
It’s so exciting to see what other artists are doing all over the world.
​There’s so much to learn, and I’m happy to be an artist!
