Jo Rohrbacker has lived in Flagstaff, Arizona for over 30 years and attended college in the northern Arizona mountains. When she earned her degree in fine arts and art history her goal was to teach, being that she knew she could be an artist without a college education. It was important for her to create safe environments for other creatives to discover their own passions. The artist’s process can be so humbling and empowering in equal measure and she found herself grateful to get to experience the ebb and flow of the creative journey through others, not just through her own experiences.  Although her comfort zone lies within the medium of painting, she has always loved telling stories. She hopes to create children’s books in the near future, accompanied by her watercolor illustrations.
