Joanna Logue – Oberon, Central West New South Wales

Artwork: Conifer – Braidwood

Born in Scone in 1964, Joanna has studied at City Institute in Sydney and has had numerous solo and group exhibitions in metropolitan and regional New South Wales, Victoria and the Australian Capital Territory.

Her paintings are a journey through space, with tree lines and horizons characteristic of the country near her home in Oberon. The work plays with visual contrasts – creating a paradox between the figurative and the abstract.

She has received several awards, including the 2000 Kings Contemporary Art Prize, and her work is represented in an array of national collections, including New South Wales University, Qantas, Walker Corporation Ltd, Australian Art Investment Trust, NRMA and Macquarie Bank.

Joanna was a finalist in this Art Prize in 2004.
