Janet Bothne's artwork focuses on the malleable physicality of paint as a conduit for expression and emotion. "It allows us to hold energy and light captive, and offer an insight into our imagination-I never tire of the possibilities it presents", she explains.

Born near Boston, Bothne studied art at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst as well as UCLA in California. She relocated to New Mexico in 2013 and now works from her studio in Albuquerque. You can view her work and see a full bio at janetbothne.com.
