Since then she has been learning different techniques - and still is. Art has been a 'lifesaver' for all this time, helping through difficulties. She thanks God for his help, and Neami for providing a safe place.

JOE 

Joe always loved art, especially abstract works but never put paint to canvas until later in life. Joe’s work is inspired by pop art, colourists and naïve painters.

Joe has been attending the various Neami art programs in Port Adelaide for over twelve years and successfully completed his Artist in Residence through Jump Arts. Joe quotes, 'I really like seeing new artists at the groups grow and enjoy themselves making art. The groups are not just about art, it’s about socialising too.'
