The Artwork Of Joni Mitchell






Joni Mitchell has pursued her role as a painter unflaggingly throughout her musical career, and has been quoted as saying she thinks of herself as a painter who does music more than the other way around.
.
You can find her work on the covers of many of her albums, from the first one on.
Musically, Mitchell was typecast as a “sensitive singer-songwriter”, but she was actually a restless experimenter, gradually moving from folk to rock to jazz and back through, pulling the strands of all of her influences into a new whole. Similarly, she has explored several avenues of visual art over the years. There is a section of her official web site devoted to her endeavors as a painter.

You can also see her copying from painters she admires, as most artists will do as they continue to learn, including some of the “American Impressionists”, members of the Ashcan School and even Bouguereau.
