Hi! I'm Jo Cicci and I love making art. Over the years I have experimented with various art mediums and I especially enjoy working in pastel now. I love immortalizing our beloved pets through portraiture. 

 

Other works include wildlife, people art, still life, and capturing the beauty in nature and landscape.

writing a book...

In addition to my art, I enjoy writing. Last year I wrote a book entitled "Why Bother?"

 

Actually, the process was beyond my control. I felt as if it were someone else's book to write --I believe it was God's. I was awoken at 3:00 am one morning and I had an outline of all of the chapters written down on paper. It was then just a matter of filling them in with my stories.

​

The book recalls my journey through the why bother? moments of my life when nothing seemed to matter and everything lacked purpose.

​

I'm sure many can relate to this feeling, and if I can speak to only one person through my words and be of help, then the work will have been worth it! It's available via the links below:
