Water Music – Joan Appel

November 2 - December 5

North River Arts presents

Water Music

by Joan Appel

Join us in celebrating Joan Appel at the Dolphin Gallery in Hingham, on display November 2 – December 5. All are welcome to the opening reception on Friday, November 7, 5:30-7:30PM.

I am both a professional musician and artist.  Although trained as a classical musician, art-making has always been a very important part of my life.  I have created art alongside my university and conservatory study as well as when I was performing in the United States and Europe. I feel that the execution of a painting becomes a personal performance, different from interpreting someone else’s poetry in song as I am expressing my own poetry in color, shape and texture. Oil painting and monotype printmaking remain my primary form of artistic expression.

These pieces in the exhibit Water Music bridge my love of sailing, the seashore, (and all things watery) and my love of music and performance.

I am a prize-winning  exhibitor with various galleries and art associations throughout the U.S. Some of my training has been at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, DeCordova Museum, Paier College of Art and I am a member of, (to name a few) the National Association of Women Artists, American Impressionist Society, Monotype Guild of New England, North River Arts Society and I am a gallery artist at the Cape Cod Art Center.

As a musician, I have degrees from Syracuse University, the New England Conservatory  and Lesley University. I performed as a coloratura soprano soloist with choruses in the New England area, France and Switzerland.  Presently I am the Music Minster at the Linden Ponds Community Church and teach piano to adults and children in my Marshfield MA studio.
