Joan B. Myers, award-winning photographer and Long Branch native, is currently showing her work at Booskerdoo, a Monmouth Beach roastery, through mid-June. Myers has exhibited in many area venues and has been juried into prestigious shows at the Guild of Creative Art in Shrewsbury, the Brookdale Community College Alumni Association Juried Art Show and the Monmouth Festival of the Arts.
ForMyers, photography provides vignettes of solitude and increased visual awareness. She feels that creating art is not only serene but at the same time exhilarating, for it increases one’s sense of being alive, and she takes great delight in surprising the viewer with unusual images.
Booskerdoo is a micro roaster of fine coffees located at 36 Beach Road, No. 9 in the Village Square in Monmouth Beach behind Michael Angelo’s. The show will close June 12.
