...........Welcome to my online portfolio! This is a partial collection of my artwork. I have been known to venture into other media, but my passion is watercolor. Ideal for capturing the equisite play of sunlight & shadow, as well as the soft innocence of children, watercolor dazzles me. I love the challenge of capturing whites without white paint, water splashes on dry paper and the ever elusive "glow" that can be achieved when I am brave enough to be "dark enough with my darks". I paint for pleasure, for gifting my family & on commission. Feel free to contact me! ............. janagittings@hotmail.com
