“I enjoy the empowerment that comes from combining blank sheets of paper, graphite lines and individual sticks of pigment, into something altogether new that cannot be reproduced in exactly the same way again. There is a ‘rightness’ about that aspect of the painting process, in that it echoes the experience of living and the changes that take place in nature, minute by minute.”
Janet Rothermel
“Janet Rothermel paints conceptual landscapes, pushing her images to the point where realism reaches that fine borderline place ... almost becoming abstraction. This happens in an explosion of color as she explores the interplay of hue, light, and the elegant shapes of nature.”
