On a trip to Norway in August, 2006, I not only traced my roots, I found family and my ancestral home. My experience was so rich that when I came home. I dedicated the next several months to composing pastel paintings based on my many sketches, photos and, most of all, memories that will never fade. Here is that collection which I exhibited in January, 2007, at a gallery in California. At that time, fine art, giclee prints will be available for sale. For sizes and prices, email me from my home page. (Click first on joanjones,above, and then on email at the end of my biog.)
