I really like the gallery presentation!

I really like the gallery presentation and am so happy to have my original paintings as well as giclee prints represented and on display.

We made it to the gallery in Canon Beach, Oregon. The owner was so lovely and her gallery really has a beautiful selection of original art.

Buffalo Facing The Storm,IMG_6424 2 copy

As the story goes, when a storm is coming a cow will see it and will run from the storm, therefore having the storm chase it. However a buffalo will face the storm, taking it head on, therefore moving through the storm more quickly. That is what my client told me as he asked me to paint this custom painting. I really enjoyed this process of creation. I had been to Yellowstone Park the previous year and had such a visceral memory of the mighty buffalo. They are so amazing and beautiful to see in person. I am happy to say that my client loves his painting! It truly represents his life and facing the challenges that come his way. A metaphor we can all relate to.

About Janet

" I Paint animals to honor the quiet, soulful bond they share with us- and with each other. Working in Oil on Canvas or Charcoal, I blend realism with abstract elements to capture not just what they look like, but who they are. Each brushstroke is a reflection of connection, emotion, and the timeless wisdom that animals carry. My work invites a pause - a moment to feel the deeper threads that unite all living beings, and to remind us of our own joyful presence.
