(Lives and works in Stouffville, Ontario | Born in Canada)
JoAnne Caza is a Canadian mixed media artist known for her fearless use of colour, eclectic storytelling, and a diverse range of visual styles. Her work spans contemporary abstract paintings, dynamic collage and décollage, whimsical character portraits, and recycled sculpture—each infused with bold personality and emotional resonance. Collectors are drawn to her vibrant, intuitive compositions that effortlessly blend joy, energy, and conceptual play.
For over 35 years, JoAnne built a successful career in high-energy marketing and public relations. Her roles, many of which focused on luxury branding, helped sharpen her creative instincts and eye for design. Upon shifting into a second career as a full-time artist, she brought that same intensity and curiosity into the studio—developing a prolific, ever-evolving art practice rooted in experimentation and expression.
Her abstract works explore movement, asymmetry, and spontaneity, while her collage-based pieces juxtapose images, text, symbols, and logos to form disconnected yet coherent narratives. Her whimsical mixed media portraits and playful cork-based pieces bring lightness and humour into her collection. Though self-taught, JoAnne’s corporate background provided a foundation for critical thinking, aesthetic decision-making, and a deep appreciation for strong visual communication.
With an audience that spans Canada, the U.S., Europe, and Asia, JoAnne’s work resonates with collectors looking for colour, originality, and personality. Her pieces have been showcased in exhibitions throughout Ontario and can be found in private homes and business environments around the world.
Today, JoAnne Caza continues to build community through collaboration, exhibitions, and art events.
