Jan Peterson Kelley

Jan is delighted, once again to be part of the Chair Affair - a wonderful effort and important cause, especially this year.

Jan’s artistic creativity surfaces in various ways: through her pastel paintings, shown at region art shows and galleries since 1992; her photographic simulation company Terra Futura Northwest; and through her landscape architecture career. Like many in the Northwest, it’s time in the Great and Wild Outdoors that inspires her. Now - combining her 30 years worth of technical expertise and her over-50 sensibilities - she is pursuing emerging social and environmental non-profit causes, both locally and internationally. Jan is currently donating her pastel images (of organic farms, Wild and Scenic rivers, etc.) to worthy causes, from JanStudio@comcast.net and soon from www.JanPetersonKelley.com.

Jan lives in Portland with her two four-legged children, practices yoga, is an un-intentional wig collector (many Halloweens) and consistently enjoys teasing out new recipes. She is a Wannabe Tanguero, Balloon Pilot, Philanthropist and Mystic.
