Works in Jan’s Totems series present icons, objects, and scenes as metaphors for reflection on current events and themes relevant to contemporary living, and his Colorfields are a series of richly-saturated geometric abstract-expressions that characterize the artist's emotional response to events going on around him, and in the contemporary world.

This early work began as a red-squared colorfield, growing serendipitously to reflect Jan’s Danish-American heritage. When he commissioned a New York City skyline for a client in New York’s Bloomberg administration, he integrated a segment into the painting for a totem reflecting the experience of a Danish-American kid in the Big Apple.
