Janet Gioffreââ¬â¢-Harrington
Ogden, Utah
The name, ââ¬ÅAn Array of Artistryââ¬Â was intended to prevent limitations, as I never want to stop experimenting with new things.
*HENNA TATTOOS AND TRADITIONAL MEHNDI. Iââ¬â¢ve been studying this ancient art form and using the pulverized leaves of the Lawsonia or Henna plant since the 1970ââ¬â¢s. From barbed wire to butterflies, to the intricate traditional wedding Mehndi, my experience and artistic abilities translate to this medium with unmatched results. I make the paste fresh before every show. 100% NATURAL. Never adverse effects.
*HAND PAINTED AND EMBELLISHED DENIM. ONE OF A KIND, all original designs. Hand painted, beaded, sewn, embroidered and otherwise embellished. Youââ¬â¢ll never see ANYONE wearing a coat like YOURS if you own one of these!
*PORTRAITS. *Very limited edition, individually signed and numbered, reproductions of my original artwork. There are also some portraits painted on denim.
*FLORAL DESIGNER, 25 years of experience.
*MURALS
About me~ I grew up just west of Cleveland, Ohio, where I lived most of my life. Between Lorain, Elyria and the West side of Cleveland. I worked 2 jobs most of my adult life~ floral designer by day, bartender at night. I moved to Las Vegas in 1994, where I worked as a floral designer at some of the major hotels and casinos (MGM, Bally's~ did work for PARIS, the Palms and the Rio). I also managed the floral dept. of a very busy wedding chapel, who had full service floral (not just wedding flowers) during the day, and did henna tattoos on Fremont St. at night.
In 2002, I met Leonard, my husband, who lived in Utah and had worked for Hill Air Force base for 21 years, we got married~ I'd NEVER done THAT B4~ and in 2003, I moved to Ogden, Utah.
I'm currently a freelance artist and self-employed, but have artwork selling out of 2 stores here in town, and do many commissions for portraits, murals, florals and jackets. We 're vendors at a lot of events during the warmer months, and being able to travel around leaving may 'mark' is kinda Bohemian, and really SHWEEET!!!
