2004 Blue Album
Janette Stiles began her journey in
painting at an early age. As a young
adult, she presented  her work in
many local shows and held her first
solo exhibition at age 17. After
attending Washington State
University, and Burnley Art School,
she began her career in graphic arts,
but continued to paint as much as
possible.

The collection of landscapes,
seascapes, animal and floral paintings,
colorscapes and mixed media grew to
be enormous and in 2000, after nearly
a lifetime of painting, Janette Stiles
and husband Joe formed
The Stiles
Collection.
The company maintains
over 400 original paintings; some of
which are exhibited twice yearly.
You will see the influence of 18th
and 19th century masters in the
pastoral English countryside paintings.

The Online Gallery includes a special
series on Endangered Species and
Animals at Risk. View 18 paintings of
wildlife that are being effected by
human encroachment on habitat, or
wholesale hunting.
1973 Madrid
The artist paints primarily in oils,
acrylics and pastels, but has also
done paintings in watercolor and
digital media.

"My work is not only a pleasure, it is
a necessity. Painting fills me with a
sense of purpose and
accomplishment. For me, it's all about
color; creating a scene, mood or
feeling using the millions of colors in
our world. My objective is to
transport the viewer to a place
where he or she experiences
something new, uplifting and unique."

Winner of the National Arts Program
Award and the 2009 AARP Calender
Contest, Janette currently lives with
her husband and Siberian/Shepard
dog Rollie in Tacoma, Washington.
They spend as much time as possible
at their Lake Cushman cabin, located
in the mountains of the Olympic Rain
Forest. The area has been
inspirational in the artist's landscape
paintings.
Janette Stiles has a Bachelor's
Degree in Art History and a
Bachelor's Degree in Marketing.
