About
the Artist: Joan F. Dromey, of Kingston
MA, holds a Bachelor of Art degree from the College of the Holy Cross,
completing requirements for a major in Fine Arts as well as Political
Science. Following college graduation, business and professional
pursuits left no time for creative work and artistic endeavors.
However, in the summer of 2006 on an extended vacation, she began to
paint once again using a new medium - soft pastels. These
recent efforts have mainly been focused on local landscapes.
Since that time she has taken workshops with nationally known
pastelists Maggie Price and Terry Ludwig as well as instruction from
noted local artists Donna Rossetti-Bailey and Heidi Mayo. Her
work and understanding of her newly chosen medium has progressed
significantly since that time. As a result, her paintings have
been accepted into a number of regional and national juried shows
(shown below) and her work is represented by a few local galleries.
