Janet Yake has been working primarily in monotype for over 20 years.
A Pollack-Krasner Foundation Grant in 1998 enabled further explorations
of this unique method of printmaking. Yake's inviting and intimate
depictions of interiors, dominated by floral arrangements, colorful
fabrics and table settings, evoke the domestic masterworks of
Bonnard, Vuillard and Matisse.
After a number of group shows, her first individual exhibition was
held in 1988 at Fitch-Febvrel. The next year saw her first one-person
overseas show, at Galleria Grafica in Tokyo. Yake's monotypes
illustrate the jackets of Laurie Colwin's Home Cooking
(Knopf, 1988) and More Home Cooking (Harper Collins, 1993).
