JOELLE DEROY HOME PAGE | ABOUT THE ARTIST | MORE WORKS | CERAMICS | ART COMMISSION PROCESS

From ceramics to paintings, Joelle Deroy's latest works have been inspired by Chinese and Japanese calligraphy, in a quest to express, in a hard fought simplicity, beauty and life. Now, what do we mean by "life"? She is looking to give shape to a deeply felt sense of wonder and the infinite facets of our human experience, using her words- colors and strokes.
