In 1977 J Rae joined the Air Force which took her to San Antonio, Texas and Denver, Colorado with Temporary Duty throughout the West. She earned a Still Photography Degree while in the Military and loved her position as Still Photographer for Air Force Dignities, Alert, Combat & Mission Photographer. She accompanied numerous rescue and refueling missions during which she was Combat & Mission Photographer at the beginning of ‘Desert Storm’. The Coastal, Mountain and Historic environments in which she has lived has
greatly stimulated her, as can be seen by the subject matter she has chosen to focus upon.

She has recently reincarnated her creative atmosphere between two loves, Oil Painting and Photography. West Middlesex, Pennsylvania is where she chose to retire in 2001, among the Amish Farmers and rolling countryside. There she had a home and art studio nestled near the scenery and wildlife which has created a new dimension of paintings.
Just recently...August of 2007, she returned to her love, her 'real' home, COLORADO.
She now works from her home with her husband and 4 dogs in the city of Montrose!
All artwork is varnished giving exceptional protection against dust, sunlight, aging & scratches. The varnish enhances the depth & color of the artwork and maintains the original quality for many years.
A perspective of the artist in her own words
"As far back as I can remember I was always painting."
"I want each of my paintings to create the mood and intensity that I felt while photographing and painting them. The public reaction to my art shows that I am doing just that."
"I spend a great deal of time observing and enjoying the diverse cities and small towns in which I have lived along life’s journey. I love traveling to other areas in order to study and photograph the landscape and wildlife. I feel this is deeply important in expanding my capabilities as an artist.” [hide]
