| Antoinette M. Janecki paints a variety of subjects but is best known for her vivid cityscapes and dramatic marine paintings. A resident Soho artist, she captures on paper and canvas the best of her two worlds -- New York City where she lives and the waters off Greenport, Long Island where she keeps her sailboat "H2O Color." |
Her artistic career began in 1983 with watercolors. Later a magazine article inspired her to try pastels and she loved them. Her very first pastel, "Staten Island Ferry" was accepted into the 1991 Pastel Society of America's annual show; the first of several pastels to be accepted into national exhibitions. |
Antoinette likes to work in series and on location "en plein air." Inspired by Impressionist Claude Monet, she even traveled to his home in Giverny, France to paint the same ponds and gardens. Primarily self-taught, she also studies with Master Pastelist Richard Pionk at The Art Students League in NYC. |
Antoinette's work has been on exhibit in several NYC galleries. She was also the poster artist in May 1998 for Garrison Art Center's "Artists on Location" event. |
