Jo Bryan is a Texas Panhandle-born artist with a love for the unusual, the transparent, and the colorful, both in life and in nature. Her favorite medium is watercolor due to its multiple layers, its transparency and the surprises the medium itself brings to each painting. Controlling the painting is a little unpredictable, somewhat like life!!! With watercolor (and life), nothing is totally predictable, and creativity is mandated. Jo likes to capture a picture that creates an emotion. The subjects of her paintings often originate with photographs she has taken. (If you travel with her, be prepared to stop while she takes just one more picture!)
Jo has retired from several careers ranging from teaching to counseling, from managing a medical office to real estate, all the while continuing to love art and work on it when she could. After going back to school to "really" study art, then supplementing that by taking classes from many nationally known artists, and finally retiring, she plans to spend lots of time exploring new mediums and techniques that she has had in mind for a long time, and learning new ones.
Jo is best known for her watercolor florals, but also does landscape, still life, abstracts, collages, and has worked in oils and acrylics.
