Joyce Rumack is a sensitive and versatile artist. She has worked in oil, Acrylic, watercolor, mixed media, and sculpted in stone. Joyce taught drawing and paintings in the public and private school systems for over 12 years. She received special recognition as an art teacher both in the grammar school and high school levels. Most of Joyce's inspiration has come from her travels. She usually works from her own photos and memories as soon as possible, after returning home. She says it gives he a sense of "completing the journey". Aside from family, painting, and traveling, Joyce loves music. She attends many Jazz festivals near home and abroad. "The musicians I paint are usually from the photos I take while listening and watching their performances." Many of Joyce's award winning paintings and sculptures are in private collections in the U.S. and Europe. She has had her work displayed in many public institutions and galleries throughout Southern California.

Born in New York, grew up in California. Always creative – art and music. An avid reader I live for books. Bit of a hot head . Largely self-taught, get out of my way, I'll figure it out myself, given libraries, museums, books, materials, and time. Love classical art, truth and beauty, high concept, composition, refined skills, color and line. A former Disney Imagineer, I do 2D, 3D, traditional and digital work. I build things; draw, paint, sculpt, with a wide variety of materials; oils, acrylics, water colors, pastels, pencils, and charcoal. Lately I've been using ball point pens for 'life drawing'. I build my own frames, was an assistant instructor of Machine technology, I do CAD and can run CNC machines. I've done architectural visualization and been a model maker, print maker, illustrator, musician, composer – leaning towards jazz and experimental – time signatures, strange scales, odd chord patterns. I believe that “late bloomers are the most exotic flowers”.
