About the Item
Artist Comments
In artist Jo Galang's quiet piece, a clear river stream flows through mossy rocks. She draws inspiration from the amazingly peaceful and soothing Kanaka Creek. "I would always welcome a quiet time to reflect on all the goodness this side of heaven offers," says Jo. Stillness surrounds this place that birds chirping would be heard so loudly—even the winds that blow are deafening and resounding.
About the Artist
Artist Jo Galang expresses a quiet nostalgia in her airy interpretations of the landscapes and waterways of the Pacific Northwest. Her soft oil paintings capture the meditative sounds of rivers and waterfalls flowing past her easel. During the summer, she spends as much time as possible outside creating plein air sketches and studying the light on the landscape. As a young art student in the Philippines, Jo was privileged to study with the renowned painter Danilo Dalena, who she says encouraged her to be the artist she is today. "I believe my art looks simple enough that people have no idea how much time I have spent working on it," she says. When she is not painting, Jo and her husband enjoy taking road trips, playing cards and finding creative ways to spend time with their granddaughter.
