JanettMarie was born and raised in Decatur, Indiana. After
graduation from high school she attended Tri-State University (now Trine
University) in Angola, Indiana, where she received her Bachelor of Science
degree in mechanical engineering.
Janett worked three long years in her field of engineering
before following her true dream to attend art school. She received a Bachelor
of Fine Art from Herron School of Art, a division of Indiana University. Janett’s
major at Herron was actually photography, a little mix of the left brain, right
brain activity. Having only 15 hours left to receive a major in painting, she
decided it was time to move on!
Janett has displayed her work at the Alliance Gallery of the
Indianapolis Museum of Art, the Columbia Club downtown Indianapolis, in several
exhibits at the StutzArtSpace Gallery and all of the Stutz Artists Open Houses
since 2007. She has had work in West Lafayette and Cincinnati.
JanettMarie has been working full time in her studio at the
historic Stutz Business Center since 2007 and is currently working part-time
teaching painting for Wine & Canvas.
