In Memoriam 1935-2022
Jo Neace Krause was born in eastern Kentucky in Breathitt County during WWII. Her family migrated to a town near Cincinnati, OH, where she attended Ohio State University. She married historian John Thomas Krause and lived in Buffalo, NY, until she bought a farm and moved to Coble, TN. Krause shared her creativity by painting and writing. Her visual art can be found on the cover of her book, in various fine art galleries and hanging in the Kentucky Folk Art Museum in Morehead, KY. In Krause's own words: “I was born in Kentucky, my family moved to Cincinnati and later we moved to West Virginia. I don’t miss any of the places I lived in before. Now we live in Coble, part of Hickman County, TN. I really do not like leaving home. Everyone should paint. Everyone should be made to paint. My artistic mission is top secret.” Krause passed away March of 2022 in her home. |
