In her professional art career, in which she also instructed; Joan enjoyed working mostly in oils and watercolors.
Exhibiting both regionally and nationally, she received numerous awards for her work. Today, her paintings remain in both private and corporate collections worldwide.

In Tryon, associated with the Tryon Artists and Sculptors, she drew inspiration from the surrounding countryside and continued to produce award-winning works until her retirement in her late 80s.
