MaryJo Humanic
MaryJo Humanic has been an artist of interest for more than 30 years, being best known for her use of light and color to bring surreal life to her paintings, sculpting, wearable art clothing designs and murals.

Maryjo was born in Homestead, Pennsylvania into a large family. With six brothers (and, yes, one of them is Ken Humanic, of the E & K Group of Companies) and sisters one might expect she was not afforded individual attention from her parents, but just the opposite is true. Her parents were devoted to their children and encouraged each of them to grow spiritually and succeed in life. Her desire and skill for art was apparent at an early age and, with the support of her family, was provided the freedom to develop her talents.

MaryJo spent several years attending various institutions to hone her artistic talents. From the lessons of the prestigious Traphagen School in New York to the Art Institute of Pittsburgh, Community College of Pittsburgh and the University of Pittsburgh, MaryJo expanded her talents and developed her own unique style.

After extensive travel in Europe, where her works are still enjoyed, MaryJo returned to the United States. She first lived in New York then Colorado. Later she moved to California where she worked for the major motion picture studios before returning to her native Pennsylvania, where she resides today.

MaryJo's art, like the artist, is both carefree and complex. Her works are available at many fine art galleries or can be commissioned.
