High Rollers




Look Up


"My paintings are my visceral response to the world. A sudden gasp or stomach flip when I notice how the light falls will spark a painting".

~Jeanne Rosier Smith

Sumptuous


Extra Froth


Sun Warmed


Whisper


"Painting in pastel is a sensory experience, hundreds of colored sticks spread before me each with its own texture, weight and feel. My arm becomes my brush, and I paint with direct touch, creating soft glazes or juicy impasto strokes with pressure shifts or the touch of a fingertip.

For me, dissolving and blending colors, creating vibrations with layered pigments reflects a balance of heart and mind working toward a moment of joy". ~ Jeanne Rosier Smith


Opalescent


Flying in Breakers


Why I Wake Up Early




Golden Light



Liftoff



Enfolding



Wild and Reckless Heart




The Secret Inside





"I paint to awaken the senses, hear the ocean’s roar, feel the wind, taste the salt air, smell the scent of the sun on blossoms. It’s beautiful out there, and we are alive." ~ Jeanne Rosier Smith


Beloved


The Colorful Crowd
