About the Painting: “The Guitar Player” captures the soul-tie a woman shares with her guitar. Joyce explains that she hopes that her audience imagines a melody, peace, and happiness when they see the painting. The vibrant colors serve to express the emotional depth and passion of her performance, she too hoping that her audience feels peace and happiness when her melody reaches them. This painting invites viewers to immerse themselves in the playful harmony of color, form, and your own imagination to collaborate in creating a connection between artist, instrument, their audiences, and you.
