Jo-Ann Day is a Winnipeg-based watercolor artist whose watercolor paintings breathe life into the every-day. A self-taught painter, Jo-Ann's artistic journey blossomed later in life, following a 30-year office career. Retirement in 2018 became her gateway to creative freedom, allowing her to fully immerse herself in the delicate, fluid world of watercolors.

Initially drawn to the precision of pen and ink, Jo-Ann found a new voice in watercolor - a medium that perfectly complements her love of nature, music, and the small but profound moments that shape our lives. Her work is a reflection of quiet observation and deep appreciation, capturing the interplay of color, light and movement.

Jo-Ann is a part of the Harte Trail Studio Tour where she invites the public into her world of soft hues and vibrant storytelling. Whether it's a blooming flower from her garden, a cherished family memory, or the rhythm of a favorite song, each piece carries a sense of warmth and familiarity.
