ArtTalks
I am available to speak at Church groups or

Jan's
Picks
People often ask me where I get my inspiration from. Faith
and nature are my primary inspirations, but I also draw inspiration
from books and movies.
Here is a book I
recently read and just loved:
Favorite
movies:
- The Milagro Beanfield War
- Frida
- Pan's Labryinth
Favorite
Music:
I paint to a wide variety of music including:
- Andre Boticelli (anything)
- Jars of Clay (Redemption Songs)
- James Taylor (anything)
- Spanish acoustic guitar (various)
I hope you check 'em out and find some inspiration
of your own!

Happy
Easter!
 A message
from Jan:
Dear Friends,
I'm writing you on a snowy Easter eve and hoping that you will enjoy a
beautiful and blessed Easter with family and friends.
There is so much going on, I'm having trouble keeping up. Here are some
upcoming "happenings". I hope to see you at some of my
upcoming shows! There are also some great opportunities to
get some of my new work at great deals which benefit charities and the
good work they do in the world. As always, thank you for all
your support and kind words throughout the year! You add
meaning and richness to my life by allowing me to share my work with
you. Wishing you joy and peace !
—Jan Oliver
