Artistic background
Jan Peter’s artwork features striking abstract and semi-abstract compositions on canvas or in her signature style, using the reflective, luminous qualities of acrylic glass.
Modernising the centuries-old reverse painting technique pioneered by Russian masters, Jan builds layers on the back of the glass. Viewing thevmirtor image through the front of the glass then creates extraordinary depth and vibrancy.
Because each layer is applied “back-to-front” an element of serendipity is always in play adding an unmistakable touch of magic and mystery to interpret.
Strongly influenced by the rich, vivid palette of her years in the Caribbean and structured by her love of mathematics, Jan’s work is unique and exclusive.
