ARTIST STATEMENT/BIO
"I consider myself very fortunate to have had a mother who nurtured creativity. I was the only kid on the block who had a ream of newsprint in my toy closet. I don’t remember having many coloring books. I liked drawing my own pictures.”
“As a senior in high school, I wrote my senior term paper on art education. I was hooked. I entered college and majored in art education at Kansas University.”
“I didn’t do a lot of art when my children were little. I worked as an elementary art teacher, a middle school art teacher, print shop artist, and a framer. After I started teaching art at an at-risk high school, I realized I needed to be working on my own art. I knew I wasn’t “God’s gift to the art world”, but I wanted to start doing art for myself. I taught art at Hope Street Academy in Topeka, Kansas for 20 years and worked on my own skills."
"After my husband and I retired we moved to West Liberty, Iowa, to be closer to grandchildren. I became part of Karel Cline’s art class on Saturday mornings. Once again, I was actively working at doing art for my own enjoyment. Now I have a place to show work at Brick Street Gallery and I am delighted."
Janet serves as president for the West Liberty Area Arts Council and is the liaison to the WLAAC from the Brick Street Gallery committee. She often is a volunteer host for the gallery and teaches many of our classes and workshops.
