The Portola Art Gallery presents “Vibrant Places” - new pastel and oil paintings from San Miguel de Allende, Sedona and California, as well as other recent works by San Mateo artist Jan Prisco.
Jan Prisco is an emerging artist working in pastel and oil. Her passion is painting vibrant locations full of color, light, contrast and character. Included in this show are paintings from recent trips to San Miguel de Allende, Mexico and Sedona, Arizona, along with plein air paintings of California landscapes.
When painting landscapes, Jan works toward capturing the mood and light of the spot she is painting. Her goal is to pull the viewer into the painting through use of texture, light and color. Jan also paints portraiture, where her goal is to capture the likeness and vitality of those she paints by studying and capturing the gesture, reflection of light, facial expression and color. More information about Jan’s work is available at her website: www.janprisco.com
