Well, the search is successful! After much seeking and consideration, a relative of a friend turns out to be the most amazing illustrator I have run across! It is so exciting to see the beautiful work that Janice Pringle provides! She comes from a long line of artists, although this is her first book. I am most delighted to introduce Janice to you so that you can be as pleased and amazed as I am!
I’m going to let her introduce herself to you in her own words.
I was born in Oklahoma and raised in Montana, finishing my last two years of high school at a Christian school in Saskatchewan, Canada. My husband and I met in Colorado, were married in 1972, and have lived in Texas ever since.
We are blessed to live part time on a family ranch in central TX. The other time is spent with our two amazing daughters and their families who live next door to each other in north TX. We have 2 wonderful sons-in-law, 4 beautiful granddaughters, and 2 incredible grandsons.
I come from a family of very talented and creative people. My love for art started as a child with pencil drawings, and over the years has expanded into other artistic ventures. I have had many different jobs. However, it seems that I have always managed to continue doing some kind of artwork, whether it was for business or for friends. Now that I have retired, I spend my time on various creative projects.
I feel blessed that God brought Lura and me together to be a part of this great series of books. I pray that I will use this gift He has given me to His glory.
