JANIE GRICE
Janie is an international visual artist, represented in Canada and the United States. She is a diva of the mixed-media 2D contemporary landscape. She sculpts, pours, brushes and glazes from a palette of textures and brilliant colour.

 Janie personifies creative diversity. She is a trained photographic technician (colour, predigital), a studio session singer, a pop performer, a marketing writer,  and an educated visual artist. Knit together, her varied skills allow her to create unique visual experiences. From music, she brings rhythm and dynamics. From her photographic background, sophistication of color systems and composition inform her work. From writing,  she developed an intuitive flow of ideas and the discipline of self-critique. And from performance, she is imbued with a sense of the theatrical and a deep desire to connect with her  audience.

This creative spirit is relentless in the expression of that  which makes life exquisite. "My landscapes are about beauty, drama and wonder, but to express  pure emotion, I can't be limited by the notion of a subject-or even a brush. Often the subject matter emerges from deep in my subconscious. I don't know what the painting is really about until it is done."
