Joyce Satterwhite

I learned to paint by my own initiative and with formal instruction from professionals. Combining a love of painting with travel, I have studied en plein air in places such as Italy, the Republic of Georgia and Hawaii as well as locally and throughout the United States.

In my Mulberry Banks studio on Farnham Creek in the Northern Neck of Virginia, I paint oil paintings of subjects ranging from figures and animals to landscapes. Painting outside of the studio, I do small paintings and studies for larger studio paintings. Extensive travel can be credited for my cultural awareness. My paintings have a narrative flow true to the people and places that inspired them. Self- expression and inner passion are the driving force behind my work.
