About Joel DeJong
"I have always been drawn to a life of adventure and it is through my artwork that I can share my passions. Although I took many art classes in my youth, I gleamed most of my knowledge about art through self study, emulating master watercolor artists like Homer, Wyeth, Sargent, Moran, Turner and others until I could stand on my own wobbly feet."

About Joel DeJong
"Watercolor fascinates me because of the versatility of the medium. It not only fits my lifestyle with its ease of travel, it also has the unique quality of relying on the underlying light of the paper to draw life into the painting. It constantly excites, surprises, and challenges me as an artist and provides opportunities to grow in my craft."

About Joel DeJong
What inspires
"I picked up watercolors and the love of fly fishing almost at the same time in my life so I suppose it was inevitable that nature plays a large role in my artwork. I'm also and avid outdoorsman, hiker, sailor, and professional pilot which gives me plenty of travel opportunities. As a result inspiration is never very far away."
