Located in the charming coastal town of Cullercoats, award-winning local artist Joanne Wishart is transforming the way we cherish our holiday memories.

Seahouses Harbour

Born in Berwick-upon-Tweed, Joanne’s artistic journey is deeply rooted in her love for the North East coastline. Her paintings, characterised by bold, uplifting colours and dynamic brushwork, beautifully encapsulate the spirit of the Northumberland region and beyond. She is inspired by patterns in

nature—fields in a landscape, people dotted on a beach, pebbles on the shore, birds flocking together, or wildflowers blowing in the breeze.

Joanne can often be found out and about sketching in the landscape, gathering information for her paintings first-hand. Each piece tells a story, evoking the laughter of children playing on the beach, the salty breeze in your hair, and the warmth of the sun on your skin. The aim of each of her paintings is to

transport you back to that special place and relive those feelings of joy.
