If you just discovered this blog, welcome! It’s been years since i posted, but lately I feel the urge to reach out and connect with other artists more often.
A quick bit about me: As of 2026, I’ve been painting and teaching for 40 years. I sell my work through commercial galleries, and teach and do demos regularly. My inspiration is largely about the natural beauty of west coast landscapes, still life, and a little bit of everything else thrown in.
Through this blog I will show recent paintings, talk about techniques and process and share some philosophical musings.
The next blog will focus on ways to get going after a slump. I have a pattern of finding January to be a month of discontent for me- I want to start all over and do everything differently., ie, better. Experience has shown me that that is not always a good place to start- kind of like throwing the baby out with the bathwater.
Talk to you soon
Janice
