About the Artist
Jeanette is a watercolor artist whose paintings of animals are inspired by nature, particularly the mountainous and forested areas in the White Mountains of northern New Hampshire and northern Vermont. Growing up with family ties in both the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont and the White Mountains, she spent a great deal of time in the woods observing and drawing nature. It was during this formative period when she began developing her artistic skills.
She is a self-taught artist and specializes in watercolor paintings of animals and nature, which reflect a distinct and original style not commonly found with this medium. Her meticulous attention to detail and her illustrative style are the hallmarks of her work.
Her work has been accepted to the "Art of the Animal Kingdom", the "Adirondack National Exhibition of American Watercolors" and the North East Watercolor Society Annual International Exhibition, three prestigious national art exhibitions in New England. She has also exhibited with The Society of Animal Artists. In the past few years her art has received several awards and is included in private collections in New England and beyond.
She is a member of the New Hampshire Art Association, North East Watercolor Society, Vermont Watercolor Society, W.R.E.N., and is an Associate Member of the Society of Animal Artists.
