Joyce Savre, 2015

Joyce Savre  came to painting by way of poetry. In the process of writing and editing poems “I became so absorbed by language, I felt I needed to ground myself and picked up the brush. Everything I learned about the process of writing pertains also to painting and collage. Writing itself becomes the subject of the work in my “Handwriting” series.” For more about Joyce and her work, joycesavreart.com.
