"Some of the most famous memorials, monuments and landmarks in our country inspired my Pony," says the artist, a full-time graphic designer at the University of Illinois. While acknowledging that Mount Rushmore, the Statue of Liberty, the U.S. Capitol, the Washington Monument, the Lincoln Memorial, and the Iwo Jima Memorial can only be appreciated when experienced in person, she wanted her Pony to be a kind of road trip across America… on horseback. The original "For Spacious Skies" was the People’s Choice Award Winner of the national “America the Beautiful” competition.
A full-time graphic designer at the University of Illinois, Janet complements her professional career designing posters, flyers and advertisements with wonderfully rendered commissions of animals, mainly dogs and horses.
