Janet Jones

These elegant and tonal landscapes are assemblages made from the used and aged covers of books. Jones searches for those that have some history - tears, signs of wear, discoloration.

By dipping them in wax and carefully placing them on birch panels, she is able to evoke a timeless and moody landscape A setting, perhaps for a story in a book.

Janet Jones received her BA at the California College of Arts and Crafts and is a member of the California Society of Printmakers. Her works are in private and corporate collections throughout the country.
