Joanne Orth
Acrylic & Pastel Artist
Historical sites. Fascinating architectural features. Barnyard denizens, wildlife in natural surroundings. Pennsylvania flora and landscapes, Atlantic seascapes. Wherever Joanne Orth turns her focus, her realistic style and strong command of light and shadows have a flair for bringing her subjects to life.
Joanne’s former career as a Professor of Anatomy at Temple Medical School likely helped hone the penchant for detail reflected in her highly representational acrylics. When she’s in the mood to loosen up, she might turn to her pastels, though lifelike qualities shine through in these as well.
The lifelong painter is a member of Flying Colors, the Delaware Valley Art League and the Chester County Art Association. She is also a familiar face at these groups’ exhibits as well as other prestigious shows including Yellow Springs, Malvern Retreat House and Art Ability.
