The Artist

With a Bachelors Degree of Art from Brooks Institute of Photography, an eclectic professional career that includes film and video production, photography, interior design, jewelry making and a lifelong commitment to the serious study of artistic expression, it’s no wonder that the images Jan Perry creates have a unique quality. Even with simple images, she is able to embed a layered depth and complexity that can stir the viewer’s intellect, as well as their emotions. The complex textures and layers of her imagery seem to glow with another reality that can only be achieved with the deft touch and precise control of a skilled photographer and printmaker.

"Over the years I have explored various mediums, and many techniques in printmaking. Currently, I’m excited about combining digital and film photography with monotypes, using non-toxic water based inks on fine art paper and other substrates. I love the spontaneity of letting the process flow where it will. Even if I begin with a rough sketch or conceptual vision, I leave lots of room for the unexpected.”
