Julie Dieterle
Art is healing, and if anyone understands healing, it is Julie Dieterle.
Not only is Dieterle the current president of the Janesville Art League, she also is a certified physical therapist. And along with her understanding of the human form and her love for colors and creativity, she maintains a deep interest in self-awareness as one of the driving forces behind the 50-foot labyrinth housed on the grounds of Earthsong Books and Gifts in Janesville.
Wisconsin State Farmer
A frolicking lamb that captures the fun and excitement of the Wisconsin State Fair will grace posters and advertising for the event in 2021.
The artwork submitted by Janesville artist Deborah Perrino was chosen as the winner of the 2021 “Fairtastic Poster Competition”.
Perrino’s playful watercolor depicts a joyful lamb celebrating the Wisconsin State Fair in front of an iconic Ferris wheel. A panel of judges representing professional artists from throughout southeastern Wisconsin selected the work for its tranquil color palate, pastoral quality and nostalgic feeling, state fair officials said.
Perrino is a member of the Association of Wisconsin Artists as well as the Janesville Art League and has exhibited extensively in the Janesville and Whitewater areas. In addition to the Grand Champion artist award, she has also earned top honors from the Wisconsin Regional Art Program, Janesville Art League and Egg Harbor EGGstravaganza to name a few.
