This original etching by late Pennsylvania based artist Joanne Isaac depicts a potted hanging deerfoot fern. A beloved artist in her community of Quakertown, Pennsylvania, Isaac studied at both the Parsons School of Design and Yale University School of Fine Arts. Before beginning her printmaking process. Isaac would draw, etch, print, hand-color, and frame all of her own work, making each piece a unique, treasured find.
This is a limited edition etching, and is number 100 in the 100 issue run. Joanne notes on the COA that the plate is cancelled with "whew, edition is completed." - Very funny! It comes with an original certificate of authenticity, COA. Print and COA both hand signed and noted by Joanne Isaac.
When asked how long it takes to produce an individual etching, Isaac said, "58 years. It took 58 years of experience to do (etchings) in a manner that might seem fast to somebody else."
Collections include UNICEF, the U.S. Embassy in Paris, New Ginkaku Yedoya in Kyoto, Honolulu Academy of Fine Arts, Free Library of PA, and New York Public Library. Joanne Isaac collections have been exhibited internationally.
