Featured Artist
Jo Engstrom
Jo’s lifelong passion for art began in rural Idaho, where childhood mud pies sparked a creative journey spanning sculpture, couture design, and painting in both oil and watercolor. After studying Fine Arts at Brigham Young University and dedicating years to raising a family alongside her husband Kevin, she fulfilled a dream by earning her BFA from Boise State University in 2004. This formal training deepened her exploration of various mediums, with watercolor and sculpture emerging as her enduring favorites.
​
Now living in Washington, Utah, Jo brings scenes to life with a realistic eye and a sensitivity to light, color, and emotion. An active member of the Dixie Watercolor Society, she teaches and exhibits at Gallery 35 in St. George. Her work reflects a desire to look beyond the surface, capturing not just appearances but the essence that stirs the soul.

"I first picked up a watercolor brush at 45 and was instantly captivated by the medium’s unpredictable and mystical nature. Though challenging, my early experiments with complex glazing and under-painting were deeply rewarding, sparking a lasting passion for watercolor’s endless possibilities".
Come and see the wonderful watercolor artwork at 35 North Main. This is a wonderful venue for talented artists exhibiting transparent watercolors.
