Wendy Joyce

My name is Wendy Joyce I am a wheatbelt artist based east of the farming town of York, Australia. My journey to professional artist was a rather long one, Whilst I paid my way through university painting horses as a young woman I didn’t start art as a full time occupation until the Covid shutdowns of 2021. I have spent much of my life around water both teaching children and coaching competitive swimming. I am fascinated by the effects of light on water and the interplay between these elements . I am influenced by the impressionists and love to capture quiet moments of childhood play. My ever evolving style finds a balance between realism and capturing the essence and meaning in a moment of time. I am greatful for the daily painting that structures my days and brings me a lot of joy which hopefully communicates Itself through my paintings! I have been a winner and a finalist in several local art awards and judged at local art shows. I exhibit my work locally as well as on Bluethumb, and Art Lovers Australia. My larger work is sold via Charleston’s Fine Art Auctions in Sydney.
