Top of the Hill, Original Painting

2025

Artist Comments
A sunlit path winds through a lush hill in Provence, leading the eye toward distant mountains. Bright green brushstrokes suggest tall grasses and trees swaying in the warm breeze. Pops of red and orange hint at wildflowers blooming along the edges of the trail. Soft blue sky creates a peaceful, open-air atmosphere. The scene captures the beauty of a summer walk through the French countryside. Artist Janet Dyer used a palette knife and brush to create this piece.

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. "Luckily for me, landscapes are everywhere, so I'm spoiled for choice," says Janet. She started painting when she was nine and sold her first painting at thirteen at a county fair, where it won first prize. From ages eight to seventeen, she joined county 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.
