Johanne Mcdonald is a native and resident of Montreal. Very early in her youth, she loved drawing and indulged in it regularly. At the end of her twenties, she settled in St-Ours where she lived for ten years. It was at this time that she took oil painting lessons in Sorel for 7 years.

Subsequently, she turns towards the acrylic medium which proves much more practical for painting on the motif outdoors. She has devoted herself to painting for more than 25 years. She then participated in numerous symposia and exhibitions. In 2005, she obtained a certificate in visual arts from the University of Quebec in Montreal. At the same time, a remedial teacher by training, she teaches adults with special needs in Social Integration using the visual arts on numerous occasions. Her curiosity led her to explore several art forms including enamel on copper and Sahori weaving.

Fulfilling a dream in 2022, she enrolled in an engraving course at Atelier Circulaire. Discovering a new universe and infinite possibilities, she decided to invest in several other training courses: drypoint, collagraphy, photoengraving, printing on Geli, cyanotype, with distinguished professors. Her new passion for engraving led her to become a member. She is a versatile artist. For her, the pleasure of creating works with different engraving techniques as well as the use of digital technology is at the heart of her artistic practice.

Her works can be found in the collection of La Bibliothèque des archives Nationales du Québec as well as in private collections. She is the recipient of several distinctions at the CAPSQ exhibition competitions (Cercle of painters and sculptors of Quebec)
