Tropics..Bamboo Night
“Bamboo Night is Part of the new “Tropics” Collection...

The aura of bamboo grove by night is charming to behold,
The moon peeks thru the leaves painting the grove in silhouette and silvery shadows,
The trees resonate with the heartbeat of romance,
Each knot feels like the ladder to advance to the higher level of ecstasy of love. J.Narain..

Janis Zroback
The bamboo plants bend and sway during windy days,
shows how to be strong and flexible in stormy days.
It is the idol of survival in tough and blistery weather,
It graciously gives way to sprouts to prosper in its withering days.

Janis..your colours are just spectacular ..you just keep getting better and better with this amazing work that you do..seriously the colours are wonderful..you’re a very talented lady!
Janis Zroback replied
I paint in all kinds of styles Catherine..this colourful one harks back to paintings I did in the past, (you can see them on my early pages here), but then later on, I toned down the colour a bit….now I’ve put it back again….
However, tomorrow you might see something totally grey or sepia or black and white…it depends on the series I’m painting and my mood…
I’m glad you like my current genre, and hope you will still like my work, even if I suddenly decide to drop all the colour and do only charcoal or something… :)))
Karin Taylor

Janis Zroback replied
Thank you so much Karin…this is a new series…and about time too, as it is where I was born…

Danilo Lejardi
Splendid creation! being one of my favorite plants, never thought they could have been presented in such a nice and artistic way. Thanks for sharing. Truely love this.
Janis Zroback replied
Welcome to my pages Danilo…I have not seen bamboo for many years, so I had to really think hard as I was painting to bring back the memories…I really enjoyed painting it and plan to do many more versions as I continue with the series…I’m so pleased you like the painting…thank you so much.
Bill Gamblin
Janis…keep them coming…I love these shots
Janis Zroback replied
Thank you so much Bill, for all your lovely comments on my paintings…although I do have other tropical paintings posted on RB, this series will be a bit different, as I plan to paint a lot up close to the subject, the way I’ve done here…so I consider it to be a whole new series…
Bill Gamblin
I can’t wait to see it…your paintings are so awesome

Joanne Bradley
Wow splendid color and composition. I was reading your comment to Catherine Walker, and it is uimaginable to me that you would forsake color and become a “charcoal” artist! lol. I am sure you would succeed at anything you decided to do… but just can’t visualize a Janis can’t visualize your abandoning color for any length of time….
Janis Zroback replied
Well you need to look over my pages again Joanne…I have quite a few grey toned paintings and even some in black and white… :))
I’m glad you like this new series.. I have posted three now and a new one from the Trees series…a new Tropics one will be posted soon…
Thanks so much Joanne.
