Jane Mjolsness

This is the work of Jane Mjolsness, whom I found in the Print November 2002 issue.  It's similar to the artwork of Mary Lee Blasutta, but she brings her own style to it, using brighter colors (bringing more vibrancy to her work) and at some points uses simpler line strokes and less detail to convey the subject at hand.  She even has pieces, like below, where she has a simple drawing with her handwriting to explain everything, which I would like to try and put into my own work.

The only thing I wish she would've tried to do was collages like Mary, but maybe it worked out for the best and she does packaging designs for her work instead (like she has above).  Simple is beautiful.  You can find her portfolio here.
