Art... original contemporary artwork both on canvas and on paper created by Austin, TX, artist Jan Knox. Painting for over thirty years, she started as a landscape painter. Using watercolor only, she now uses all medias depending on the effect she is after with the series of paintings she is working. She has now branched out to include all sides of Mother Nature, such as rocks, animals, plants, and the natural elements of our planet-- earth, sky and water.
She loves the outdoors, and traveling. Her artwork reflects both her training as a geologist and her love of the natural world around us. She has traveled to all seven continents and paints her memories of the exotic places and cultures.
