Know The Artist
Janine Louise has been a professional artist for over 30 years, creating unique one-of-a-kind art pieces.
While attending art school, Janine had the opportunity to work in a stained-glass studio where she quickly became the lead artist, designing and crafting unique stained-glass windows and other glass art pieces. While perfecting and transforming her work at the glass studio, she discovered ceramics.
Deciding to leave the stained-glass studio after 15 years, Janine began to explore the varied areas and opportunities that ceramics presented with clays, textures, and glazes. Studying with many of the leading ceramic artists of the time, she began experimenting with the use of colored slips to produce 2D Monoprints. Janine’s unique style landed her Monoprints in gallery showings in Santa Barbara and Los Angeles.
Janine’s love of nature and insight into the use of textures and colors influences the creation of her unique, contemporary ceramic pieces. Each ceramic piece creates a visual sense of movement and fluidity, inviting further exploration of her work and the statement it is making.
Recently, Janine Louise Ceramics relocated to a rural area of Southwest Washington State, where Janine lives and works surrounded by tranquil mountains, rivers and forests. Her current 3D sculptural works have won several awards and are shown in galleries throughout Southwest Washington.
