April Artist of the Month
Joanna Dumond
Please join us at a reception to welcome Fort Fairfield Art Teacher Joanna Dumond as Fort Fairfield Public Library's Artist of the Month.
​
This show is a series of paintings inspired by nature in Northern Maine and the Acadian Legends of L'autre Monde (the other world). She says, "I like the idea of piercing the veil between our world and the imaginary. I have always spent a lot of time daydreaming. The canvas is a place where I can bring those daydreams to life."
​
Joanna has a BFA from the University of Maine at Presque Isle and a Master in Art Education from Boston University. She works in multiple disciplines including sculpture, photography and painting.
