{"product_id":"layers-of-self","title":"Layers of Self","description":"\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eWhat if the moods you are channelling are not your own, yet compel you to paint every day? And what if the constant ask of the paint is to “make it wilder,” and you speak back to it in tongues? These are just a few of the preoccupations of Canadian abstract painter Janna Watson. To move through her first self-published monograph is to experience the artist’s magnetic pull toward the canvas, followed by her compulsive steps back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eSpanning four recent bodies of work, the book brings together a glorious selection of paintings, stunning photographs of the artist’s process and workspaces, and an evocative essay alongside a revealing interview. Linen-bound and tactile, the catalogue offers the closest one might come to peeking through Janna Watson’s large-rimmed glasses — and seeing the world through her singular lens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eLayers of Self: Janna Watson\u003cbr\u003eWords by Lisa Cristinzo and Tory Healy\u003cbr\u003eEdited by Tory Healy and \u003cspan\u003eCristian Ordóñez\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGraphic Design by Cristian Ordóñez\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eISBN: 978-1-0699288-0-1\u003cbr\u003ePages: 144\u003cbr\u003eAvailable: May 2026\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Studio Watson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46706714411183,"sku":null,"price":95.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0070\/7143\/2751\/files\/LOSOpenBook_jpg_d7381b90-50a8-4a01-ad1a-55b2a4ff31c5.webp?v=1774550216","url":"https:\/\/studiowatson.ca\/products\/layers-of-self","provider":"Studio Watson","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
