Joanne Killian - the birches
Artist Hometown: Margate
Medium:
Location in MD Anderson: Janet Knowles Breast Cancer Center, Hallway Corridor, Outside of Ultra Sound Room 9 C2086
Artist Bio:
Joanne Killian is a native of Atlantic City and has lived in Margate for over 30 years with her husband, Patrick. Joanne worked as a successful real estate broker associate for 25 years, all the while dabbling in her love of art.
She began by painting flower pots and table linens. At the urging of her children and grandchildren and those who saw her creations, she began to take her artwork seriously and started to take classes in oil painting, acrylic and watercolor.
“My inspiration for painting came from my first love gardening. Creating a piece of art is the same as creating a beautiful garden you experience a whole new feeling of happiness. This painting was inspired while I was hiking in the White Mountains in New Hampshire in the fall.”
