"Janice creates uplifting nature-inspired art with a delightful profusion of joyful colors, engaging organic forms, rhythmic compositions, and inspirational messages.

   "Janice’s creative versatility spans a variety of styles and media. Most recently the interior landscape of her imagination has captured her interest to the delight of viewers and collectors. She is also proficient in book design and illustration, creates many commissioned paintings, and paints landscapes and pet portraits." ––Renee Phillips, Founder, Director & Curator of Manhattan Arts International

 “Janice Phelps Williams’s organic sense and imagination of the natural world is brought to fruition from her great feel of color and the (unending) interest of her details. There is so much detail w/ shape & texture. Perhaps most importantly, the entire scenes are very much alive ...with the flora/fauna magically coexisting. I can't determine if these are underwater scenes or icons of different thoughts in someone's mind. 

   “I think Janice is still evolving. Every new piece seems richer than the last. I think Janice’s work will become  well known. They're just too good not to.” —Russell Hudson, furniture maker, interior designer

 

“The Covid-19 epidemic in 2020 affected people all over the world. The fears and devastation of that period of time will not be forgotten by those of us who lived through it. Janice Phelps Williams’ 40,917 in Ohio (acrylic, ink on paper) touched me on a very personal level because my sister died of Covid and because Janice found a way to create a beautiful piece that held joy and sorrow at the same time. The dots that represented each death from Covid in Ohio also represented the color and life that preceded those deaths, and that remained in the memories of their loved ones. 40,917 in Ohio holds an honored place in my home.” —Carolyn Steele Agosta, writer

 

“I have been a fan of Williams’s work for awhile now. I have two lovely art pieces of hers, which I feel very fortunate to own. The first painting I purchased is a serene seascape with sailboats that is so full of charm. She has captured the grace and tranquil spirit of sailing and I simply love it. The other piece I purchased is an older piece which is a wonderfully painted collage [Dreamscape, watercolor] of all kinds of beautiful things. It feels like a sort of diary of moments captured on paper with a dream-like quality. It’s thought provoking and it feels very personal. I love the authenticity of Janice and her art work.” ––Jan Powell

 

“What I love most about Janice Phelps Williams’s current work is the way it surprises and delights through unexpected imagery, rich textures, and vibrant colors. Her art can be both whimsical and intricately detailed, inviting the viewer into a world of wonder. It sparks curiosity and encourages personal meaning-making, offering an experience far richer than simply observing a still life or realistic representation.

   “Janice’s art draws you in, asking you not just to look, but to engage—to step into a relationship with the work itself. After all, isn’t that the essence of art? To create a dialogue between the creation and the viewer, to evoke emotion, reflection, and connection. Her work invites us to participate, to find our own stories within the layers, and to leave with something more than we had when we arrived. Several of her pieces grace my home, each one a testament to her unique vision and creative depth.” ––Katharine P. Appleton, LPC, SEP, Consultant & Creative Life Coach

 

“We turn to Janice Phelps Williams to illustrate published pieces that demand reader engagement. Her paintings dwell in that fabulous interpretive realm between abstract and representational, where the true soul of art resides.” —The Lascaux Review
