Janette Marvin

Janette uses her art to record a memory that brought joy or to capture a moment of calm. She feels the world could use images that bring a smile or tranquility as opposed to the jarring images we see on a daily basis. We get enough of that in the news - our living space should be enveloped with a positive force and this includes what we choose to view.
Marvin studied art at Georgia State University and St. Andrews College where she received a BA degree in art. She has always been keen to try her hand at most art mediums and enjoys painting a huge variety of subject matter. She spent 30 years working with interior designers across several states all the while teaching art at a private school and accepting hundreds of commissions. She was on the local Arts Council board putting on art shows and helped other artists find success. Marvin specializes in extra large murals. She grew up in Brazil which has influenced her creative process over the years.
