Artist Biography
Janice
Cobb is a native of Fort Smith, Arkansas. She
has lived in Tulsa since 1972, with the exception
of four years in California. Her original career
was interior design. Studies in design school
in Chicago, including color theory, history, composition
and design, contribute to her work.
For the past eighteen years, she has studied with
artists including Ken Auster, C.W. Mundy, John
Encinias, Louise Grayson, AnnTempleton, Xiang
Zhang, Virginia Rodecker Jarboe and George Kountoupis.
Studying the paintings of the great nineteenth
and twentieth century impressionists in books,
galleries and museums, haas also been an integral
part of her education.
Janice says about her work, "My work is a
combination of realism and impressionism-real
enough to let the viewer identify with the subject,
but loose enough to allow him to interpret it
in his own way. Clear, bright color is what draws
me to a subject, as well as the mood set by a
sharp contrast in light. All my paintings are
from life or my own photos and try to capture
my emotional response to the subject."
Janice Cobb's work has been
exhibited in Tulsa's Mayfest Invitational Gallery,
First Priority Bank and in the Gilcrease Museum's
"American Art in Miniature" show.
