Janis Anton

"The work cycles from naturalism to abstraction, but always looking at the landscape and those who wander in.  I take license to shift between abstraction for emphasis and the sheer delight of allowing colors and imagery to mingle."  Janis Anton

Janis Anton-
"My images are based on 11th Century botanical drawings and personal family photos. Both of these sources represent mystery and the edge of changing perceptions; the botanical drawings are from a time when a nascent scientific understanding existed alongside a mystical awareness of the natural world, while the family photographs of people I never met represent a fact of the past onto which I can project a sort of emotional narrative that fills in the gaps in my personal history. When I compose the paintings, the overlap of sources creates a new story of its own. "
