She is currently off-site working on a new series of paintings inspired by her mountain retreat. The gallery remains open during her hiatus. Drop in to see the art and antiques on display, including the plein airs from Janet's fall trip to the Bugaboos. Browse works by guest artists and check out the collectibles brought in by antiques-picker Gerry Frost, who was recently featured in an article of the Western Producer. See new giclees by Jack Tennant and new paintings by Carmen Miller. On Saturday and Sunday afternoons, meet artist Carmen Miller while she paints in the studio. Janet returns in April.

| Sunday, July 19 to Monday, July 20, 2009 Cochrane Business Chicks saddled up for a great weekend getaway at Rafter Six Ranch. Participants couldn't have asked for anything better of this event. There was beautiful weather, an evening trail ride, delicious dinner, wine and cheese, an outdoor breakfast buffet, a river hike, and a Jacuzzi to relax in at the end of the day. Janet Armstrong of Just Imajan Studios was the organizer of this first-time event targeted at Cochrane's local business women. Many thanks to the staff of Rafter Six Ranch for their hospitality and service. |

| Saturday, June 20, 2009 When Calgary commercial photographer Carla Fedje was scouting unusual backdrops for her wedding clients, she came across Just Imajan Art Gallery & Studio. Charmed by the eclectic blend of art and decor, she approached Janet about using the gallery for a photo shoot. The result was a beautiful collaboration between artists, and a unique addition to Nicole and Kevin's wedding album. For more of Carla Fedje's work, visit www.carlafedje.com. |
