Artwork selected in the 2007 Hawke's Bay Review, and for the 2008 Hastings women's Centre Art calander

Joleen's work features edgy collections of images and symbols combined with text. Current work involves linear designs on flat coloured backgrounds are appealing and both visually and intellectually interesting. Joleens older work is beautifully drawn, and her characteristic touch is a "nervous" line. Her work is a good illustration of one aspect of outsider art: the direct simplicity of drawing combined with an emotional complexity.
