About the Item
Night Watch captures a dynamic interplay of movement and contrast through bold, gestural brushstrokes of deep blue and black layered over a textured canvas surface. The use of clear gesso allows glimpses of raw texture to emerge beneath the paint, adding a tactile depth that enhances the sense of motion and rhythm. Flecks of pale color and small pink accents punctuate the composition, evoking the quiet energy and mystery of the night.

Night Flight, Abstract Painting
By Janine Etherington
Located in San Francisco, CA
Artist Comments
After a flight back and forth across the country, Janine's exploration in her studio started with a playful mixing of colors directly on the canvas. A shape emerged in that process that she chose to repeat and then incorporate with a series of glazes. Stepping back and looking at the result, the image reminded her of those hours spent moving through the clouds to finally find herself back home.
About the Artist
Janine’s abstract artworks are created with measured doses of both intuition and analysis. “My work develops as a series of calls and responses,” she says. She adds color, letting gravity pull the paint around. She then responds to the direction of the composition with additional marks, adding and subtracting. The incorporation of recognizable forms, specifically letters and numbers, indicates the influences of Jasper Johns and Robert Rauschenberg on Janine’s work. Janine is also inspired by listening to jazz music. She is a musician herself, and plays in a local Zimbabwean marimba ensemble when she’s not painting.
