Joane Moran was born and raised in North Vancouver. She showed an early interest in drawing and in colours and became an eager artist at the age of twelve years. An opportunity to have private art lessons at that age put her on what she found to be an exciting creative path.

Work and family somewhat curtailed her efforts until about the year 2000 when she again became fully active in the field of art.

She considers strong strokes of colour and contrast to be important qualities in her work. She classifies her work as “realist with a contemporary edge”. Her subjects include still life, landscapes and seascapes, all in oils.

She has participated in numerous Federation of Canadian Artists shows and her work is held in many private and corporate collections.
