Janet Felton’s “Tidal Reflections" collection came about as a result of observing coastal life from her home on the Navesink River in Fair Haven as well as where she spends her summers on the northern coast of Spain. Having spent her career as a graphic designer, Janet is drawn to the bold simple shapes of boats as they bob and sway atop the ever changing patterns and reflections of the water. There is beauty in that contrast. Janet aims to express the calmness as well and the vibrant energy of these elements, both rigid and fluid.
Janet Felton, Janet Felton earned her BFA from Arcadia University in Pennsylvania and went on to a career in graphic design; she is also a ceramic artist. It wasn’t until the COVID-19 lockdown of 2020 that Janet began to paint. Since then she has shown at The West Windsor Arts Council in Princeton Junction and has had solo exhibitions in Castropol, Spain in 2022 and in Ribadeo, Spain in 2023. A number of her paintings have also been exhibited at Beauregard Gallery in Rumson.
