ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Japanese handmade 'Washi' paper is an amazing media to create with. So many secrets that slowly reveal themselves. "Washi Spirit" "Man is the river, Man is the rain. Man is the wave. Water is the medium. And Washi is the waters spirit. It's first secret is awakening. All life comes from water. So the Washi does. It's second secret is relieving. Born floating in the water, Washi transmits weightlessness. It's third secret is soothing. Moving with the waters flow, the fibers gather naturally in the most harmonic way. It's forth secret is reminding. Slowly build up by the movement, it's structure is the memory of the time passed for it's making. It's fifth secret is enlightening. Light moves through the fibers until it is released according to the Washi's structure in never ending ways." I want to share these secrets and provide people the awakening, relieving, soothing, reminding and enlightening presence of Washi in their Homes and Lives.

Jan Sullivan Fowler is a contemporary Artist working in Japanese handmade Washi paper and acrylics to create paintings with a unique flowing form. JSF Studios exemplifies "Life as Art". The Village of Elm Grove, Wisconsin was the perfect place for me to grow up doing art with my Mom(Kay Sullivan). I had received my degree in Fine Art from Milwaukee School of Art in the 70's, when Mom discovered this new mode of expression, Japanese handmade "Washi paper" and acrylics. My style has been referred to as "a new genre of Abstract/Modern", combining the clear ethereal with the contemplative aspects that provide a unifying and calming feeling.(you can see more work at ) The natural fibers of Washi visually float, and add a depth that is unachievable without. I'm featured in Luxe Interiors+Design in the Deign Resource center.
