In Memoriam: Joyce Ritter
We are deeply saddened by the passing of Joyce Ritter, an extremely talented quilting artist, with an incredible sensibility for color, line and design. Her detailed, picturesque quilts of flowers and street scenes, like her, exuded joy, beauty, and grace. Joyce was an active member of Resident Artist Studio Program at the Howard County Center for the Arts and referred to her studio as her “happy place”. Her warmth and generous spirit radiated through her artwork and in her studio, where she welcomed all and created a sense of community and camaraderie amongst her peers and all who met her. Our thoughts are with her husband Jim, her family, and friends.
