Jane Mercer
I take a representational approach to painting the landscape. My goal is to capture the essence of a location, create an eye appealing design and apply the paint with assured brush strokes for a visual impact. Together with color harmony, balance and design, I apply paint to create atmosphere and a focal point to capture the viewer's eye. I am fascinated with the glow of reflected light on various surfaces. The light creates the drama. I paint to convey the enjoyment and excitement of what I see.
