I'm honoured to have Janet Anderson paint yet another of my photographs. This one is of three roses that I took several years ago at Nakanoshima Rose Garden in central Osaka. I love what Janet has done with light and shadows. Stunning, as usual!
Visit Janet's Instagram page to hear her talk about this work and for a better view of the final painting. Below are links to the two other paintings she has done of my photos. I'm still not over it! (^.~) Visit Janet's website to see more of her beautiful paintings!

Some time back, Janet Anderson, a Canadian artist from Victoria, BC, painted my photo of a yellow ranunculus in my garden. To say I was pleased is an understatement! (Click here to see the original photo and the painting.)
Well, Janet has done it again. This time it's a painting of photo of a weathered rose that I took while visiting the Rose Garden in Hirakata Park. (Most people know this park as a theme park called "Hirapa" but it has a huge rose garden too!) I'm just so honored to have such a talented artist take interest in my photos. I love this one too, Janet! Below is the original photo, the painting (taken from her Instagram page) and a shot of the painting in her home. As far as I know, the painting is not for sale. Janet's Instagram: www.instagram.com/janetspaintedlife/ Janet's Website: www.janetspaintedlife.com/ A few years ago, I discovered the works of a Canadian painter named Janet Anderson. I was captivated by her bright, bold images of flowers and nature, so I purchased a few of her prints as a gift for myself. During our correspondence, I mentioned my love for flowers and shared some links so she could view some of my photographs. To my surprise, she requested to paint some of them, and that was the quickest "yes" I've given in quite some time!
The first photo Janet chose to paint features a yellow ranunculus from my garden. Below, you can see the original photo and below that is Janet's painting. In fact, she painted the photograph twice, and you can view the other version on her Instagram page, where she also shares her progress. I'm so impressed by Janet's work and am honored to have my photo used as a source. Thanks so much, Janet! Please visit her at the links below! Enjoy!

That's me. It's "nonbiri", which means "take it easy" in Japanese, plus my initals.) |
