Taking the Long View, featuring panoramic oil paintings by Janice Druian, opens February 6 from 4-8pm at Tumalo Art Co.
Janice is best known for landscapes that capture the beauty of the isolated parts of Oregon, Arizona, Idaho, Wyoming, California and other western locations. Inspired by such great painters as Maynard Dixon and Edgar Payne, Janice is drawn to the limitless vistas of the high desert. The beauty she is surrounded with at home and in her travels has informed her show. An award-winning painter, Janice has been invited back to the Borrego Springs Plein Air Invitational for the third year in a row and won Best of Show in the 2012 Los Gatos Invitational.
