    This ice study is from my IceFallEssay and depicts a surrealistic,natural setting from my series"Upper DelawareRiver". IceFallfeatures anincredible 16 foot icestructure that literally ends witha "frozen splash"against the

    ground.

    This magnificent eye-catching formation was found alongthe Upper Delaware River of thewestern Catskills, a nationalprotected area by the Dept. of theInterior. "IceFall"is a 10x8" gelatinsilver print on double weight glossyfiber paper that was handmade in atraditional wet darkroom.

    of winter landscapes.

    soft-focus technique Jan employs that isreminiscent of, yet entirely different than,"pointillism". In her own words, "I do notuse models as many flower painters do.Instead, I must recall from memory theirbeauty. When I paint still life flowers, Ienter the world of my garden. Of course,my garden is alive and active in thesummer but in the winter I cannot put myhand into the soil and so must apply it tocanvas instead.
