Janet Parker was born and educated in England. For as long as she can remember, she has always been interested in all forms of art and at the age of ten, Janet entered her first show.
In 1969, Janet immigrated to Canada and she took up a full-time career in banking and this left little time for her artwork, but when the family moved to Dundas, her interest in painting was reborn. Now retired, Janet is a full time artist and spends time traveling and painting around the World.
“Overlooking Exmoor” was painted on a recent trip back to Janet’s childhood home.
Artist’s Statement:
“For me, it is a magical experience when shape, colour and light work together to produce a successful painting. I strive to communicate to the viewer the excitement I feel when painting the piece. It is my intention to entice the viewer into the painting and to become involved with the subject matter.”
