A quest for the natural beauty thatsurrounds us, her paintings are inspired by the structure, color, and patterns in nature.Working in watercolor, her organic forms integrate with the texture of the heavy cottonpaper. The marks, pigment selections, and translucent layers are precise, thoughtful,and carefully planned.Jan’s observations on how color influences our well-being are translated into a visualescape. A reverent personal journey created by thousands of stories, life experiences,and what brings her peace, inform Jan’s desire to offer a new perspective on familiarforms. She opens a window to the beauty she finds in her world and offers it up for theinterpretation of the viewer in her works.Born in Detroit, Michigan, Jan Heaton is a third-generation artist.
