The paintings on this page are done from my imagination. I am currently reading a lot of books on mythology, dreams, spirit and Eastern thought and philosophy. I know that my imagination is directly effected by my reading ... which is a neat thought that we truly can effect who we are at all levels of our psyche.
All paintings are available for purchase, except for those marked sold or on-exhibit. I hope you enjoy my work. If you have questions, or are interested in prices and purchase information, please email me at Joan@JoanWinter.com Please click on any image to enlarge. Thank you....

Moving Through Identities; Oil on Stretched Canvas; 30x21"; Available
These two were painted around the same time. The one on the left expresses some of the different identities that we go through in life... The screaming naked woman coming out of the cave represents a naked soul ... hungry for an identity.... The one on the right represents a woman who has very little identity left. it is being sucked out of her by those around her.
