Landscape reproductions sell to a new collector!

Large Trees in Autumn Color (24x16), Curve and Water's Edge (12x12)  

Happiness is an email (or three) from Fine Art America letting me know that I sold three fine art reproductions to someone in Columbia, MO. Since the sales are always anonymous, I do not know who to thank. SO if you happen to read my blog...this is a big thank you! Feel free to sign up for my newsletter.

These three oil paintings are very complimentary in color, with very warm tones dominating and feature vibrant brush work on canvas. The originals artworks are available and can be found on my website: janetfons.com

Forest Park Landscape: Looking Upstream

Looking Upstream, 14x11, oil on panel by Janet Fons

This Forest Park (St. Louis, MO) landscape in oil is painted using a palette knife which builds up the surface quickly and establishes an interesting texture.

New Landscape in oil: River Rocks (Forest Park, St. Louis)

River Rocks, oil on panel, 12 x16 by Janet Fons

This close up view of a stream flowing over rocks in Forest Park (St. Louis, MO) is one of my favorite subjects. I used a mix of warm and cool tones to convey a feeling of tranquility. This scene is painted with a palette knife which allows the surface to be built up quickly and establishes an interesting texture. To see all my artwork, click here.
