ArtTalk – Janine Dunn Wade
2024 Honored Artist Janine Dunn Wade: Painting is a Conversation
Janine Dunn Wade’s paintings are gestural artifacts of a conversation between the artist and her materials. There is an ebb and flow. The artist must acquiesce to the dictates of her subject and the paint. The resulting painting is relic of that conversation, revealing in one moment the entire artistic process. Janine’s paintings with their vibrant colors and strong brushwork reveal her joie de vivre and bring her audience along.
Janine is the first artist to be asked back for a second visit on ArtTalk. She was selected by the Phillips’ Mill Art Committee as the 2024 Honored Artist for her contribution to the Mill and the local art community. Janine has expanded from her floral still lifes to interior scenes and landscapes.
Janine Dunn Wade has exhibited widely, including at Ellarslie in Trenton and Woodmere Art Museum. She’s been participating regularly in the Phillips’ Mill Juried Art Show since 1995, winning several awards. Wade earned a BFA from Villanova. She’s studied in Siena, Italy, Paris and Guanajuato, Mexico as well as in Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts master classes.
