About the artist
Jana Brook is a locally based watercolour artist who has facilitated sketching groups at Winton Wetlands and has exhibited her pen and watercolour works at Art Gallery on Ovens in Wangaratta. Of her work, Jana says,
“Art is my way of connecting to place. I’m influenced by the Urban Sketching movement as well as traditional Plein Air painting. I create Journals and Artists books using water-based media. These, as well as being my personal diaries, inform my studio work.”
