JAN PERKINS graduated in painting and illustration from Utah State University in 1985. Since then Jan has worked as an illustrator and more recently as a landscape and wildlife artist. Jan has a vast interest in life and this is reflected in her variety of created work. She has painted Greek ceiling paintings, award winning portraits of musicians in the Utah Symphony, children’s portraits, landscapes for Utah ski resorts, fashion illustration, and paintings of show and race horses. Now, Jan is exploring and expressing the beauty of wild lands, of nature, and of light, with her art. It is this passionate love of nature, which inspires her to paint.
“ When I am in the presence of nature, of animals, and of a certain kind of light, I am immediately restored to peace, to wholeness, to an indescribable calm. For me, these experiences are nothing less than sacred. I strive to create paintings which reflect this experience.”
Jan’s work is included in several collections in Utah, her home state, as well as across the country. She also continues to exhibit her paintings in local and national shows. Jan was recently honored with acceptance into The Arts for the Parks Top 100 and Top 200 Shows, and the Springville Art Museum. Jan’s paintings are represented by Montana Trails Gallery.
She now lives and paints in the quiet beauty of rural Oakley, Utah.
