“Travel Memories” by Jan Grady

Viewpoints Gallery is thrilled to present “Travel Memories,” a collection of breathtaking watercolor works by local artist Jan Grady. In this stunning exhibition, Jan pays homage to scenes throughout Europe, drawing inspiration from her extensive lifelong travels. &nbsp;Jan’s passion for her subject is evident in every piece, and her latest collection celebrates the charm and magic of Europe. “I have selected scenes from trips, particularly in Europe, that have captured my imagination and made me want to explore them further,” explains Jan. “From cozy sidewalk scenes in France or Italy that show charming vine-covered buildings, to a view of a town square with a magnificent church, each one is special to me.” Jan masterfully recreates these scenes from her travels and infuses each moment with radiance and life. &nbsp;In one standout piece, her depiction of the rose window in the restored Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris expertly draws viewers into the piece using strong values, color and light to express the reverence and joy of the sacred space.

Jan has long been drawn to the luminosity of transparent watercolors, and her works are suffused with light, vibrant colors and masterfully rendered reflections.&nbsp;“My paintings often capture reflections in glass, landscapes with water, historic buildings, brightly colored flowers and leaves, or still life subjects with a close focus,” says Jan, adding,” I am particularly drawn to warmer colors and vivid hues.”&nbsp;&nbsp;
After retiring from a career in Information Technology at Hewlett Packard in 1999, Jan discovered her passion for art and her second career as a fine artist began. She developed her impressive talent with watercolor after taking workshops and classes from accomplished watercolor teachers. She has since traveled to many European countries to paint with art groups.&nbsp;Today, Jan’s stunning works continue to bring beautiful destinations to life. 
Jan is a signature member of Watercolor West and a former president and member of the Santa Clara Valley Watercolor Society. Today, Jan’s work can be found at Viewpoints Gallery in Los Altos, where her vibrant watercolors light up the gallery and delight viewers.&nbsp; More information about Jan and her work is available online at <a target="_blank" href="https://www.jangrady.com/" rel="nofollow noopener">www.jangrady.com</a> and on Viewpoints Gallery’s website <a target="_blank" href="https://www.viewpointsgallery.com/" rel="nofollow noopener">www.viewpointsgallery.com</a>.
