Framed Original Oil - EDGE OF FOREST

This piece is typical of the loose strokes of this artist, combining colours in a way that is at once impressionistic, yet still creates a landscape that makes you feel like you are "right there". This painting skillfully depicts the variety of growth in a dense forest from trees, to bushes to undergrowth through layers of colour. One almost wonders if you might catch a glimpse of a deer or fox...

Framed size 25 1/4" x 19 1/4" in a 1 1/2" black float frame. Due to the size and nature of the piece, it is available for local delivery in Cambridge, Stratford and area only, or email info@cedarlake.ca for special arrangements and costs.

The Artist: A Kitchener native, Janice Saunders graduated from the University of Waterloo, with a BA in Fine Arts. While raising five active boys, she focused on fine art photography as her primary medium, and then later returned to painting in oil and acrylic. She enjoys painting both en plein air and in her home studio, and her subject matter includes landscape, still life and some figurative work. When asked to describe her work, Janice replies, “I have always worked in a painterly style and I love colour and pattern. I am drawn to the gesture, not the detail.” 

Janice is also a graduate of the Independent Studio Program at the Haliburton School of Arts, and a graduate of the Humber School for Writers.
