I am always so thankful to be an artist and to paint the vision that clients present to me. Such is the case with this painting ‘True Love’. A client sent me the photo of his daughter and her precious beloved horse. He explained to me that his daughter was now 28 and her beloved had recently passed away. He really liked my painting ‘Fluid Motion’ and asked if I could paint a painting like that one, in the same color palette with color and gesture, of the photo he gave to me.A precious memory, a moment in time.
This is what his request became. I am so grateful to him for asking me to create a painting that is so personal for his family.

About Janet
" My guiding light as an artist is expressing the power, movement and sensitive nature of horses and other animals. So many of us know the beauty and love shared by us and the animals. It is an emotional kinship. I find great joy in creating a painting where the life and soul can be seen and felt not just by me, but the viewer as well.
In creating a piece I often combine engaging expressions in my subjects that evoke emotional curiosity along with dynamic energy, life and spirit circling within the composition. My paintings are first felt in my heart and are complete when the spirit of the piece arouse a feeling of intimate communication. My mission is to accurately portray the equine form, combined with color, inspired originality, infused with living essence.
I will continue to paint in oil with expressive brushwork, inspired by the vibrant animals that dance through my mind."
