i am really shocked..i read it today- my condolences to her family- will never be forgotten. she was such a lovely person and a phantastic artist- will be missed in our hearts. stay above us and be free

My deepest condolences to the family. Just found out that such a wonderful artist has passed. I only knew her as StudioArtVartarian, but she was once kind enough to favorite one of my graphics, which greatly encouraged me. Her characters and style are so distinct, so mythic. I hope her catalog will still be available, and I'm already missing what might have been new work.

i cant believe it..., this is so incredibly sad. My condolences to Joanne's Family. :(

so sorry to her this tragic news. My condolences to all her family and friends

So very sad news, my deepest condolences to Joanne's family*****

thinking about her untimely demise still chokes me up. she was a special person that I will think each time I use one of her many products

I just saw the post from her brother on FB. I can't believe she is gone. My condolences to her loved ones. I just buried my grandmother a week ago, so I certainly can empathise with the loss.

This is very sad news. Joanne was such a special person and an amazing talent. She will be very missed. My condolences to her family.

I've been away from 3D for awhile, and I come back to learn this. I am so sorry for her family and friends, she was incredibly sweet and an extreme talent in the industry. What a loss!

Art has lost a talented daughter The renderosity has lost a friend I personnaly didn't know her very well but someone as gifted as her can only be a fantastic person According to all the testimonies, i'm not wrong May all the words found here and there about Joanna try to express the sympathy to her family I join you all to say we'll miss you and you're awesome contribution to 3d art, Joanna

I was so shocked, and now I'm just SO SAD whenever I see her products here (images).... Why do the BEST of us go too soon?

Thank you for your concern and we will let her Mom know she is in your prayers.

A link to a public obituary would not be giving out personal information.

I was shocked with the news !! I wish that God in his infinite mercy has consoled the family because in this period so sad I was out doing medical treatment too !! Nothing severe !! It is sad to lose people so dear !!

My deepest condolences to her family and loved ones, and those friends who knew her.

I am shocked......God bless you Joanna.....My condolences to her loved ones

This is a stunning loss. The 3D community as lost a wonderful vendor but the world has lost a wonderful person. Though I only knew as SAV she was always helpful and kind when I corresponded with her. That is how I will remember Joanna. The world is a little dimmer without her.

My best wishes and prayers to her friends and her family.

Jo was a dear friend, an inspiration, a rare soul of pure beauty and talent. Her georgeous smile and lovely aspect matched with a heart of gold.

I am truly in pieces after the news, it's been several days now but I still feel pain any time I see the SAV folder on my Runtime and I know she is not a mail away anymore. I miss our brainstormings, our last project was just a month before she passed away, I cannot wrap my head around this thought.

All I can think is that she was waaaay too perfect to be in this mad world. She was a true angel.

To her mom Sofia and dear brother: know that you had a precious flower, you rised and loved an amazing creature of pure beauty. Smile because she touched the hearts of so many of us, not just with her skills but with her wonderful soul. Thank you to all your love that it showed in her.

I love you Jo, I wish to see you soon and we can then share more laughs and maybe spend all our time creating stuff and playing with the pets we love and protect.

I miss you Jo, make the Heaven a wonderful place with your immense talent, like you did here on Earth.

Incredibly tragic, so young... My condolences to everyone.

Such a tragic and a huge lost. My condolences to her family and beloved ones.

Joanna and her works will be truly missed but always wiil be remembered through Art and friendship . My Condolences to her family

What sad news! Joanna was such a great and amazing artist. She will be very much missed and always remembered. My thoughts and prayers to her and her family.

This is heartbreaking news, she was a wonderful artist and was kind enough to leave a comment in my gallery when I used her models. We'll be lost without her and my heart goes out to the friends and family she leaves behind.

The community lost a very talented artist and to have exchanged a few words with her, a person with great human qualities. I am sure that a special place is reserved for you in heaven. My condolences to her family.

A sad news. I am very sorry. she was a wonderful artist. My condolences to her family. I wish much strength.

JoJo was my friend. She was one of the most beautiful, generous, inspiring, and talented people I knew. Because of life and my own health I had not been able to talk to her in a while. I'm going to miss her.

I just learned the sad news, heartfelt condolences to her family and loved ones. We are losing a great artist here. :(

SHOCK!!! Jo was a really kind and friendly person, and she created some of my favorite M4 characters. Her great talent and dedication will live on in our Poser'n'DAZ Runtime.

Really sad... Condolences to her family.

Some people are born under a star.

Too talented, too gifted, too special, with an incredible aura that brushes off positively to all those around them.. Jo was one of those charismatic people!

What I will always remember of Jo is not her incredible work but mostly her glorious laughter! Deep, unique and loud, coming from her heart! Since the moment I found out of her untimely and tragic loss, that happy laughter of hers, keeps playing over and over in my head!

Jo was a happy, joyful person! The type you loved to socialize with, chat and have fun with! Somehow she always magically managed to bring a smile on your own face too!

Her sketchbook of the Arts Degree that she got was too limited to hold her endless ideas..She loved to explore and conquer new software frontiers! Jo was one of a kind of a stubborn, superb 3d-creator, a true hard worker, a generous personality, eager to help others without a second thought.. but mostly a curious kid at heart!

Her social circle.. was quite limited! Family and a handful of selected close friends among vendors and store staff. I consider myself extremely privileged to be among them.. to be the one not just close to Jo but her mother too.

Jo will not be missed terribly only by people.. a neighborhood of cats and dogs that she was always looking after and caring will miss her terribly too! Her pure heart was melting at the sight of an abandoned kitten or an injured one. She wouldn't hesitate to spend a fortune to the vet and nurse them back to health with love and sleepless nights care. One of her favorite pets was a one eyed cat! A couple of litters had been born under her very own bed.. stray cats that would walk inside her open door at winter time. That's the kind of person Jo was!

Usually, when I start typing... I keep writing endlessly, paragraph after paragraph trying to keep up with my thoughts, most of you know what a blabber mouth I am.

But this time.. I find myself numb and at loss of words! I just can't bring myself to say "goodbye" to Jo!

So farewell my friend.. till we meet again, you will be missed more than you know!

There's always a void left after the loss of someone, especially when that someone had such unmistakable talent and kindness. I've been in this whole game for only a short while, but it's never difficult to see the brightest stars no matter how lost you are. I know she will be missed.

J'ai vu une photo mais je n'ai jamais fait le rapprochement ... Condoléances ...

This unexpected departure makes my tears arrive. I continue to feel the loss and will for some time to come.

It's a shame she was taken long before her time. My condolences to family and friends. She will be sorely missed.

.... no, this can't be. I can't believe it. I just talked to her a while ago, she commented on the art I made with her wonderful sets. She was such a talented, warmhearted and amazing person. I have all of her M4 sets and I told her countless times how much I love her work and how much I appreciate her unwielding support for M4. She will be missed, as a vendor and a part of this community. I'm crying. This is so terrible. I can't wrap my head around it. Rest in peace. You will be soooo very missed.

This is heartbreaking. She was one of those brilliant artists that saw the possibilities of a new medium and created beautiful, expressive things with that vision. She is irreplaceable.

This is a terrible shock! She was a fantastic artist, and I purchased many of her creations! She is in a better place! She will be missed.

it's truly heartbreaking to hear this news but heartwarming to see the Rendo community pay tribute to one of the greatest artists the site has ever had. Sadly missed, but forever in our runtimes.

Joanna's products were a staple in many of my images I have made through the years. She always commented to my image posts when I used her products. I would often enhance her materials and send them back to her. She always was very kind and responsive and occasionally even incorporated my texturing ideas into her future products.

Her talent and creativity will be sorely missed.

Joanna was a lady with awesome talent! She will be dearly missed by everyone. My condolence to Joanna's family and friends. May she R.I.P.

I am very affected by the loss of such a talented artist and wonderful woman. Her products and images have always fascinated me and helped me grow as an artist myself. She will be sorely missed and my heart goes out to her family in this time of grief and sorrow.

My condolences to her family and friends. This was far too early a leaving. Thank you for sharing your artwork, Joanna. Much respect.

I did not know her personally but I liked her work. I hope and pray her family is well. My condolences to her family.
