Jeanne  Dyer

​Even as a young girl, I have always been happiest when I have a pencil, pen, crayon, brush or camera in my hand. I enjoy capturing the beauty of this world and sharing it with others through my art. 
In 1984, I graduated from Bradley University with a BA in Fine Art, and became the Advertising Manager of Cohen Furniture in Peoria, IL. In 1988, I was hired as a Marketing Communications Consultant, by Caterpillar Inc., and in 1992, by Caterpillar S.A.R.L., moved to Geneva, Switzerland, returning to Peoria in 1999. 
Retiring to Lake Geneva, WI in 2006, I served on several board positions, including President, for the Geneva Lake Art Association in Lake Geneva, WI, and was instrumental in helping the GLAA become a 501c3 charitable organization, now known as the Geneva Lake Arts Foundation, Inc. After moving to St. Charles, IL in 2014, I served as Vice President, then President for the Greater Geneva Art Guild, and currently serve on the Board of the Geneva Foundation for the Arts, which recently opened the Geneva Center for the Arts Gallery in 2021.
I am a member of the Geneva Lake Arts Foundation, Inc. (Honorary); the Illinois Watercolor Society; the American Society of Botanical Artists (ASBA), and the Geneva Center for the Arts. 
During my life, I have been fortunate to live on four continents, in five very different 
countries, each with its own particular character. I’ve studied the inhabitants, both human and animal, their unique dwellings and landscapes. My artwork is a reflection of what I’ve learned.
I create art using various types of media including: colored pencil; conté crayon; oil pastels; oil paints; watercolor paints; lithography; and photography.
