Jan McLaughlin

"For me, painting is a way to show my feelings, energy and soul to the viewer.   Much more than a pastime, it is a visual memory that is interpreted in  our minds and made visible through our  hands."

Jan has a BA from Michigan State University where she majored in art  education.   After a 37 year career as a high school art teacher in Oakridge Pubic  Schools In Muskegon , Jan retired in 2010 and since that time has focused on her own art, working in oils on canvas.


Jan is also currently a docent at the Grand Rapids Art Museum, an experience she has found enriching for her own artistic expression.  


Jan says, "Being a lifelong learner is surely a road to fulfillment...every empty canvas a challenge and a new beginning."
