MENLO PARK, Calif. -- The Portola Art Gallery presents "Ebb and Flow" -- paintings by San Mateo artist Jan Prisco. The exhibit will highlight landscapes, wavescapes, and seascapes inspired by local Peninsula locations. A reception for the artist will be held on Saturday, November 9, from 1:00 - 4:00 P.M.
Jan creates paintings of local California landscapes and seascapes in oil and pastel. Her favorite place to do this is in nature, especially at the beautiful beaches of the Peninsula and at the Baylands. During the Covid pandemic, Jan spent time in Half Moon Bay and other locations studying the movement of the ocean waves and taking photos for future paintings. Since then, wavescapes have become a subject she has painted extensively and has enjoyed sharing with others who love both the drama and healing power of the sea.
Jan's exhibit will include a number of small works which she hopes will appeal to collectors who are currently on a budget or buying for their loved ones as holiday gifts.
In addition to exhibiting her work at the Portola Art Gallery, Jan has taught pastel painting for many years. She currently teaches at the Pacific Art League and has taught plein air workshops for Filoli, as well as studio classes for the Atherton Arts Foundation and University Art.
