Celebrated for her watercolor work, Jo-Ann Osnoe moves effortlessly from still life to landscape to florals and local scenes. Expanding recently into oil painting, she has gained recognition in this medium as well, winning First Place in a recent Bucks County art competition. She finds inspiration in nature and her Bucks County surroundings, where she has made her home for the past fifteen years. A dedicated and focused artist, she has exhibited in over one hundred local group shows, including over a dozen juried regional and national exhibitions.EDUCATION:BFA, Parsons School of Design SELECTED JURIED EXHIBITIONS:24th Annual Byers Bucks Fever Art Exhibition 2010Philadelphia Sketch Club’s Annual Exhibit of Small Oils 2008, 2011Perkins Center for the Arts Juried Watercolor Exhibition, 2009Philadelphia Sketch Club “Art of the Flower 2006” NOVA (Network of Victim’s Assistance) “Galaxy 2006—2010”21st, 28th & 29th Annual Ellarslie OpenPhillips’ Mill Annual Juried Exhibition, 2000 & 2009Artsbridge Juried Art Exhibits, 2001, 2007, 2009, 2010 Main Line Art Center Juried Show “Living With Art” 2007AWARDS & HONORS:Utrecht Award for Excellence in Painting at Ellarslie Open XXIX, 2011Artsbridge Members Show 2010, "Best Small Landscape" Honorable Mention: NOVA Galaxy 2009Juror's Award: Perkins Center for the Arts Juried Watercolor Exhibition, 2009Watercolor painting selected for BARC 2007 holiday cardHonorable Mention: Tinicum Art Festival, 2002PROFESSIONAL AFFILIATION:Philadelphia Watercolor SocietyArtists of YardleyArtsbridge
