JANET FISH IMAGES FOR THE PAINTING CLASS
Fish, Janet, (b. 1938), was born in Boston. Her grandfather, Clark Voorhees was an American Impressionist, her father an art history teacher, and her mother, Florence Whistler Fish, a sculptor and potter. She studied sculpture and printmaking at Smith College and Skowhegan Summer School. She was one of the first women artists to receive her MFA from Yale University in 1963.
Fish received her first one-woman exhibition in 1971 where her work sold out before the opening, and during the next several years became an established New York artist.
