Our artists, the reason to celebrate our festival, filled our clubhouse and grounds with their latest work.

From paintings to pottery, quilts to jewelry and sculpture, we enjoyed the color, texture, form and feeling which art brings to our lives.

We have a strong community of artists in Williamsburg.  And many active in our Williamsburg arts community are also our neighbors, or our former neighbors, here in Kingspoint.  We are happy to have the opportunity to to meet and visit with them, and to view and purchase their current works, right here in our own Kingspoint Clubhouse.

 

Jean Hess has strong ties to our Kingspoint neighborhood.  Her work remains on permanent display in our clubhouse.

 

We also have a strong community of volunteers.  We appreciate the support of so many willing neighbors who helped make this event possible. 

Working together, we created a memorable and successful day. 

“Thank you!” to all of the friends, family, neighbors, and visitors who shared some part of the day with us.

Janis Lee Wood

Paintings

Janis has been painting, exhibiting, and selling her works for forty years.  Her mediums are acrylic, watercolor, and mixed media.  She uses bold colors, impasto techniques and texture, and often takes a more impressionistic, or abstract approach when depicting portrait, landscape, and still life subjects.

She has exhibited in numerous art venues all over the country, most recently in Northern VA, Virginia Beach, and Williamsburg, and her paintings hang in many private collections.  She loves interior and landscaping design, and will accept commissions to create paintings to suit your personal tastes and color schemes.  She also produces paintings that are water and weatherproofed and meant to be hung outdoors on patios or fences.

Janis worked for the federal government in the Washington, DC for more than twenty years.  Throughout this period, she continued to paint and exhibit in both Washington and Northern Virginia.  In 2002, after retiring from the Federal Government, she moved to Williamsburg, VA, where she continues to paint.   Born in Texas, she has also lived in California, Maine, Maryland, New York, and the U.S. Virgin Islands, and has traveled extensively both home and abroad.  This varied background provides her with a wide range of visual experiences that influence her paintings.

Many of Janis’ works are available in limited edition gallery wrapped canvas giclées.  They are hand embellished by the artist, and signed and numbered. She also offers open edition prints of her works on gallery quality paper that are mounted and matted using acid free materials.  She will also custom frame both originals and reproductions at a very reasonable cost in styles and colors to suit your decor.
