About the Artist: Janis Grau is thankful that she was born an artist...with an artist's eyes. As an artist she is constantly surrounded by beauty, even in what would appear to others to be a mundane setting. Within a copse of summer trees she finds thirty different hues of green...and blues and purples where those with an artist's eyes see only a clump of trees. Her artist's eyes morph the ordinary objects and entities seen by others into a world overflowing with patterns and textures, sunlight and shadow, shape and form, line and contour, hue, intensity, tint and shade. She believe that non-artists may be able to share this world with me through my paintings...that they can, for a few minutes, step out of the banal and into beauty. She was told she was born holding a crayon! As a child, she can remember dropping them through the heated floor grate watching the colors melt together all the while her dad was yelling about the smell of melting wax. Janis cannot recall a time when she was not "making art" of one kind or another! That early love of crayon melting color-on-color has evolved to where the crayon has become a brush and the wax colors have morphed into brilliant watercolors.
