Janette has always been drawn to art — from sketching as a child to discovering a new creative outlet through welding at El Paso Electric. She began using discarded metal scraps to craft abstract sculptures and functional pieces, turning what was once waste into meaningful art. Her passion lies in bringing joy to others through her work, especially when she sees their reactions to her one-of-a-kind creations. For Janette, it’s not just about welding — it’s about making a lasting impression through imagination and heart.
