Jan Weiss - July Guest Artist, "California Living"
JAN WEISS
Jan Weiss is a northern California based artist working in a variety of mediums from acrylic on wood panel and canvas to digital renderings and typography. Jan received her BA in Fine Arts from Cal State East Bay and shows in galleries in the Bay Area. She is represented by several fine art publishers and online third party sites such as Image Kind, Great Big Canvas, Red Bubble, Zazzle and Artfully Walls.
Her work ranges from abstract landscapes, to modern design, typography and a clear activist influence to some of her work appealing to feminists and outspoken progressives everywhere.
Jan believes in the democracy of art; that art belongs to everyone and creates works that fall into a variety of prices making it available to a range of budgets and buyers. Most of the original works showing here are abstracts on wood panel – rendered in acrylic and then coated with a clear gel medium to make the colors pop. And several are landscapes focusing on the forests and deserts of California with three paintings reflecting coastal beach houses – emphasizing her love of the California coast.
