FASO Collector Recommends: Janie Haskins
Biography
I’m fascinated by the world around me-the effects of sunlight, reflections on the water, old buildings, and the beach. I also love to watch people. These inspirations weave themselves into my paintings, which strive to show beauty, a sense of “being there,” and something true about human nature. I paint in an impressionistic style, using color, light and composition to transform what I see in front of me.
Many of my paintings begin on location. For me, there’s nothing better than being outside and capturing sunlight on the landscape, or the joyous feeling of a day at the beach. But I also take photos and work from them in my studio, where I can take my time without worrying about wind, rain, heat, mosquitos, or ever-changing light.
Bio
Janie Haskins is an impressionistic oil painter from St Petersburg, FL. She is known for her colorful depictions of landscapes, birds, and life in Florida.
Janie began studying painting as a teenager but veered away from art and instead became a journalist and then a lawyer. It took years to circle back to her first love of painting. In the meantime, she represented entertainment industry clients in L.A., started her own law practice in Ohio, and raised four children.
Janie’s life experiences inform her art. Growing up in coastal Newport News, Virginia, she developed a deep love of the water and the beach. Journalism taught her to be a keen observer. And law taught her perseverance.
Janie recently spent three summers traveling around the country with her husband in a Winnebago van, painting plein air along the way. The experience gave her a new appreciation for the vastness, variety and beauty of the American landscape.
Janie has studied with some of the premier landscape painters in the country and has taken top awards at regional plein air competitions. She teaches a weekly plein air/studio painting class during the winter months, along with occasional workshops. She is married to fellow artist Jim Kammerud and they share a studio in St. Pete’s Warehouse Arts District.
