Joan Bailey – All of my life I have been driven by the love of strong, bold colour and rich texture. I believe in any means to get the right effect and freely mix acrylics with inks, collage, or spray paint.

In the spring of 2012, my partner, potter Tony Eyamie and I realized a dream of opening an art gallery in beautiful Bayfield, Ontario called Patina Studios & Gallery where we show our own work but also represent other artists from SW Ontario.

I am now represented only by our gallery in Bayfield. I like to paint townscapes, people, trees, florals, barns, birds and sheep, and much more. I paint in all sizes from 6x6 inches to 5x5 feet.
