Jan's Apprenticeship With Pam

With a folk art grant from the Wisconsin Arts Boards Jan studied for a year with Vesterheim Gold Medal rosemaler Pam Rucinski. Jan's studies began in July, 2014 and continued through May, 2015. She focused on the Gudbrandsdal style rosemaling but the interlacing of styles means they touched on many others as well. The aim of this blog is to show Jan's progress through the months of study. The photos show her process; the good, the bad and the ugly. Follow Jan on her journey.

Pam and I met at her studio on Thursday, November 6th and spent the day pouring over designs, photos from our Vesterheim visit, and critiquing the sample practice boards I brought with me.
I brought with me two designs I am working on refining. I will continue to improve the designs before painting them on actual woodenware. Here they are in their rough forms. The chalk lines refer to alterations and revisions. Onward!
