Blue Cliffs Retreat

Joy first started painting in the 70s, created and ran a very successful batik business in Colorado, USA. For the past 25 years Joy has been in private practice as a psychotherapist incorporating art in her therapy work.

Today, Joy spends her time between her home office practice in Fitzroy and her retreat in Hepburn Springs, Victoria, painting in both spaces.

The colors of sunrise and sunset are the most inspiring for Joy as she loves vibrant colors which she incorporates in her impasse, abstract paintings on large canvases.

Her paintings are incorporated as part of the decor in B & B villas that she and her husband have in Hepburn Springs, as well in her home/office in Fitzroy.

Often painting at the retreat is a family experience with daughter, Nadja (who has her own design business), her 9-year old granddaughter, Sophia, and recently, her daughter-in-law, Tessa, who has arrived from London where she was a successful visual merchandiser and now an artist.
