Olive Trees by Curved Path, Original Painting

2024

Artist Comments
Soft, loose brushstrokes depict a curved path winding through olive trees under a bright, clear sky. The scene takes inspiration from a dusty road artist Janet Dayer encountered on her trip to Provence, France. Using a palette knife and brush, she creates an impressionistic feel that captures the warmth and tranquility of the Mediterranean landscape.

About the Artist
Artist Janet Dyer paints expressive and gestural landscapes inspired by her travels. Her work reflects the changes brought on by the seasons, seizing the colors and mood and reinterpreting them into lively compositions. "I believe the process of creating art is equal in importance to the final product," says Janet. She started painting when she was nine and sold her first painting at thirteen at a country fair, where it won first prize. From ages eight to seventeen, she joined countless country fairs and relished seeing her works on display. Growing up in Ohio and Michigan influenced Janet's fascination with wide open spaces. Now living in New York State, she loves to travel whenever she gets the chance and finds inspiration everywhere she goes—particularly farms and France, and farms in France. "Luckily for me, landscapes are everywhere, so I'm spoiled for choice."
