Biography- Janice Robertson, SFCA, NWWS
Well- known BC artist Janice Robertson was born on Vancouver Island, into a family with a long history of women artists. She lives in the historic village of Fort Langley with her husband, artist Alan Wylie.
 Since launching her professional career in 1989, Janice has received a number of awards, including the Bronze Medal in the Federation of Canadian Artists 2000 Signature Members show, the Margaret and William Foley Award at the 2001 Adirondacks National Exhibition of Watercolors in New York , and the Foreign Award at the Houston Watercolor Society's exhibition in Texas in 2004. Her work has sold throughout North America and can also be found in collections as far afield as Australia, Singapore, Japan, Europe and the United Kingdom.
She has been a member of the Federation of Canadian Artists since 1987 and in 1993 was awarded the organization's highest status- Senior Signature member [SFCA]. In 1999 she was elected as President of the Federation. Also in 1999, she was awarded signature status in the Northwest Watercolor Society [NWWS].
Janice's art training has included courses in the fine arts department of Fraser Valley college, as well as many workshops offered through the FCA. She is a popular workshop instructor, sharing her love of light and the techniques she uses to capture its moods.
"Quality of light is important to me", says Janice. "It gives me energy and inspiration and I hope something of that quality is what I give to people in my paintings."
" I choose to paint images of the things that I love… the things that are near and familiar. My still-life paintings reflect the attachment I feel for my home and garden and my landscape images are, mostly, of the West Coast forests and beaches I have known all my life."
Janice works in watercolor, acrylics and oil. She is represented by galleries in Vancouver, Toronto, Vancouver Island and the Fraser Valley.
