AUTHENTICITY  *  CAPTURING REAL MOMENTS IN TIME  *  STYLIZED REALISM

After visiting countless art galleries and museums in Europe from 2 1/2 years of travel around the world, just before turning 21 years of age, Janet discovered her passion for art and an unknown innate ability, which inspired her artistic pursuit.

Acrylic paintings are based on authentic scenes, drawn freehand
. She showcases nature in its truest form. Digital hand paintings were produced from 2015-2016. Her current Fine Art Collection, was created from January of 2017 to now.

What is,
is more extraordinary
 than what could be. The beauty in nature and all of existence, lies in its authenticity. It is always ever changing, but consistent, boundless, perfect and cohesive.
