Since childhood she has enjoyed hands-on creative pursuits, but it wasn't until the fall of 2009 that she began taking watercolor lessons with a local artist in her hometown of St. Charles, Missouri. Janine has since taken workshops from nationally-known artists including Carl Purcell, Janet Rogers, Fealing Lin and Ted Nuttall. She now paints daily in her home studio. Janine is a Best of Missouri Hands Juried Artist, a Saint Louis Watercolor Society Signature Member as well as a Signature Member of the Southern Watercolor Society, Watercolor West, the Northwest Watercolor Society, the San Diego Watercolor Society, the Missouri Watercolor Society, the Illinois Watercolor Society, the Michigan Water Color Society, and the Georgia Watercolor Society. Artist Statement Beginning with a loose and expressive underpainting, I work in many transparent layers, considering shapes, color, and value. I slowly add details with more precision until I am satisfied that I've captured the essence of the subject, the expression on a person's face, the moment in time. Watercolor painting for me is challenging, relaxing and exciting all at once. I enjoy experimenting with techniques and colors as I continue learning and growing as an artist.
