Distant Lavender, Provence, Original Painting

2022

Artist Comments
Artist Janet Dyer displays an impressionistic landscape of lush lavender fields in Provence, France. Expressive strokes in bold shades of green and hints of golden yellow establish the dense summer foliage. Trees line up at the top of the carpeted field, highlighting the middleground separation of sky and land. The deep blue atmosphere gleams brightly from the beaming rays of sunlight, illuminating the entire panorama.

About the Artist
Janet Dyer doesn’t like to spend too much time talking about her art, as she’d rather be creating it. She doesn’t have an artist statement, the traditional statement of purpose crafted by visual artists to explain their method. On becoming an artist, Janet simply states, “I picked up some crayons and pencils and brushes and kept using them.” She believes the process of creating art is equal in importance to the final product. The artist enjoys relinquishing control of her paintings to find delightful surprises in her so-called “mistakes.” Janet's expressively gestural yet bucolic landscapes are a testament to the success of her method.
