JoAnne Windsand

JoAnne Windsand; photographer, artist, illustrator and composer of free verse, lives in rural Sky Valley. A long career as a Nurse and adversities in life nurtured a deep appreciation of the fragility and preciousness of life. This developed into passion for life and art. A need for healing found photographing nature and painting a healing pathway. JoAnne hopes to share through her work the peace that she has found on her journey.

Windsand’s works have been exhibited in the Palm Springs Art Museum’s Artist Council Exhibitions, the Open Desert Music and Photographic Showcase at the Museum’s Annenberg Theater, the College of the Desert and a Senator’s office. She has illustrated a Coachella Valley author’s books and also taught art at Indio Juvenile Hall under the Coachella Valley Arts Alliance’s More Than Art Program. Currently she is working on a series of landscape photographs and ephemeral art; ‘Sand, Bones and Words’.
