A talented artist and DASF chapter member, Janet is known for her still life designs. But living in Florida has opened her eyes to many new and exciting subjects to paint. These wonderful changes to Janet’s painting life means sand, seashells, flowers and the wonderful colors are now a part of her new painting subjects. The blues in the sky and the water, the many beautiful flowers that bloom all year and the greens of the plantings are exciting new opportunities for painting. These colorful cosmos illustrate her striking use of colors.
She loves painting these subjects on new surfaces with interesting backgrounds and designing tables runners using RocLon. These new designs are part of her new packets.
Janet does seminar teaching and has lead DASF members in painting projects before. It will be a treat to paint these beautiful cosmos with Janet. Her designs are originals and one of her originals on an ornament was selected for display on the Library of Congress tree in Washington, D.C. Stop by to visit if you are in D.C. during the holidays!
