Where Painting

As an independant artist, I invest myself in creating pieces that touch the soul; to have an individual experience in humanity, emotion and to spark the imagination. What do I want my art to say? We are all connected through life and experiences. This inspires me to work and create. I want people to see our connection. I am a studio painter with a process that leads to multi-layered abstracts. Abstract Expressionism is my genre of choice but I lean toward an aesthetic of minimalism. I want strong detail, harmonious composition and a serene outcome. As a Canadian painter who grew up in Windsor, Ontario and now lives in the Algoma Region of Northern Ontario, I received influences from the strong automotive industry combined with the beauty of the Algoma landscape where many of the Group of Seven painted. ​Oh, and by the way, you pronounce Jackie Janisse just like Henri Matisse.
