Janet LaPointe Bio

Janet LaPointe knew she wanted to be an artist at the age of eight. After winning many contests as a teen, she enrolled as an art student at Tunxis Community College in Connecticut. Janet also attended the School of the Worcester Art Museum. Being trained in fine arts, her desire was to teach painting but she was without a studio until her husband of 25 years, built one in their home. In order to accommodate a home-based artist studio, Stephen had to build a third floor addition. This new floor soon became known as "The UpperRoom Studio."

Janet's prophetic paintings are inspired by the Holy Spirit of God through both visions and dreams. In Revelation 19:10, John writes "Worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy." As music, song and dance are all glorious forms of worship, so too is painting and drawing. All forms of worship are a sweet smelling fragrance unto the Lord. The following is what Janet has to say about her painting gift.... "My God is a God of color and light. When I paint, I use color boldly to evoke emotions within the viewer in order to get their attention.
