Joey P. Mánlapaz earned her M.F.A. in painting from The George Washington University. She is a painter and Associate Faculty at the Corcoran School of the Arts and Design at George Washington University, where she teaches all levels of drawing and painting. She is Lecturer at Georgetown University and also teaches at The Art League School in Alexandria, VA. Her latest passion is to conduct art workshops and art lectures to the elderly at several D.C. assisted living and memory care facilities. She is widely collected in the U.S. and abroad. Breaking from the photorealist tradition of NY artists Tom Blackwell and Richard Estes, her style is more painterly, infused with the psychological breadth of Edward Hopper, coupled with the visual mystery of Alfred Hitchcock. The D.C. government currently owns 24 of her paintings, by far the largest collector of her work. In 2013, the U.S. Library of Congress acquired her personal papers and correspondences, sketchbooks & other memorabilia for permanent inclusion in the Asian American Pacific Islander Collection.Now Open for Entry
