“Alluring and aloof red beauty. Please do not inhale her deeply.”

I am a maker because what i I see won’t stay in my head. The smallest leaf or flower will catch my eye and draw me into its own intimate moment of shadow and light. The bigness of the outdoors calls to me, echoing my own cavernous desire to stir someone else by sharing my interpretation of this smallest (or biggest) expression of life.
Nothing is as satisfying as charcoal on my fingers, paint on my jeans or flecks on my glasses; I attack the surface with emotive strokes, smudges and smears of contrast and harmony. I love the feel of creativity.

Getting her hands dirty (literally), the methodical movements of the brush when painting and most days the blast of music from her speakers help make the rest of the world go quiet and all that exists in Joni’s brain is the scene she’s creating in front of her. It is her meditation, her relaxation, her calm waters that hopefully is carried with it to its new home wherever it may hang.

Petra Gotthardt

“Poppy Delight”

Mixed Media:Photography/ Drawing

Visit Website

Petra Gotthardt is an emerging artist forging her art practice by combining a passion for photography with painting and drawing, employing multi-layer techniques on paper.
Deeply reverent of and inspired by nature and its colors, patterns and textures, she is seeking the sacred details.Her art is characteristically vibrant in colors and explores how photographic images can be evolved into new realities and experiences, celebrating nature. By adding brushstrokes and other mark making in sequential photographic print layers she preserves the energy of each layer which work symbiotically in the final outcome to create often abstract visual and emotional experiences, evoking new perspectives.
Highlighting or exploring textures and patterns and colors change photographs into interpreted art pushing varied art forms into new, hybridized territory . The final layer is applied to previous prints on Hahnemuehle museum grade paper using archival inks and markers.

I live in Ashburn, Virginia. I developed a love for art as far back as I can remember. I quit my corporate career 2 years back to take a step towards following my dream to become a professional watercolor artist. I have just started my journey and it has helped me to rediscover my child like enthusiasm for watercolor painting.

I love all form of art but watercolor is a medium that I love the most. The miraculous element of this medium inspires me.
I am inspired by light, movement, pattern and surprising color combinations. I strive to portray a balance of realism combined with loose abstraction, causing one to compliment the other.
