About the Author

Janet Forsyth is an established artist in her Southwestern Ontario community. She has had a passion for painting all of her life working in almost every media. Her large oil murals grace several churches in Canada, Korea and Hawaii. Janet’s greatest satisfaction, however, is in the challenge of “unforgiving” watercolors. Her paintings are in many individual collections including McDonald’s Restaurants, Dave Ewald Life Insurance Agency Ltd. And the Lower Thames Valley Conservation Authority. It has been her pleasure to organize and escort artist workshops under the tuition of professional instructors to United Kingdom, Portugal, Mexico, Virgin Islands, Italy, Greek Isles, Hawaii and Eastern and Western Canada, etc. She has had several one woman shows and won awards at juried Eye For Art. In addition to private lessons during her earlier years, Janet studied at Windsor University in the Fine Arts Department. However, she attributes her developing skills with watercolors to a good introduction at Doon School of Fine Arts and an excellent teacher and friend Jack Reid. Since taking etching courses in England she has produced single and multiple plate etchings. Janet has been honored to be commissioned to paint the portrait of Malietoa Tanu Mafilia II, King of Western Samoa traveling to Samoa to make the presentation. She is also honored to have had her work chosen be Ducks Unlimited, Erie-St. Clair. Janet encourages others to enjoy the reward and satisfaction of painting. She is enthusiastic about her work and looks forward to devoting full time to it. She has a sensitivity for the nostalgic which has evolved into production of several lithographic prints of historic interest.
