Jolene Joyner

Jolene Joyner is an oil/pastel painter. She has lived in Indiana County most of her life and currently lives in Clymer, PA. Her studio is in her home. She works from photographs that have been taken locally and from her travels to France & Italy. Her artwork is representational because she enjoys the challenge.

Jolene Joyner’s “Fox Hunt” and “Trail Ride” are oil on canvas paintings that display equestrians on horseback riding through a forest during autumn. The equestrians serve as a focal point for the piece; as your eye meets the center of the piece, you are able to follow the directional light sources. Her use of light and dark tones and hues of brown help to separate the horse riders from their surroundings; while her tints of green and red give an opaque look for the scenery surrounding the focal point. These aspects give the pieces depth. Jolene Joyner’s work is very popular at The Artist Hand. She has a talent of capturing a moment in time with her oil paintings.
