Biography
It is Jane's intention to create distinctive pieces of art that allow us to connect with the places that we see and experience every day. Finding inspiration through architecture, towns, homes, landmarks, and even rural landscapes, Jane is able to capture the story that lies within each corner of our world. Creating a story and a connection to the things we see around us is the most important part of her role as an artist.
As a life-long creative, Jane is dedicated to empowering people of all ages to embrace their own creativity through workshops and classes. After a simultaneous and successful career of both serving as a public school art educator and raising a family, Jane now takes advantage of this semi-retired stage of life. Her teacher-heart also recognizes the benefit of sitting in a student's chair every once in a while, where she is constantly sharpening her craft by incorporating fresh, new perspectives and embracing the sweet learning moments along the way.
Cold wax, acrylics and mixed media have always been a passion for Jane. As well, she recently picked up a palette knife and transitioned into working with oils when painting 'en plein air', where she developed a fascination with the freedom of texture and vibrant use of color. This artistic shift led her to see through a more impressionistic lens - focusing less on the details and more on the big picture, leaving it up to the viewer's imagination to complete the beautiful story in front of them.
Jane enjoys sharing her knowledge and new interests with others, and is proud to see her pieces happily adorning living room mantels, creating conversation on busy restaurant walls, spicing up cozy office lounges and hanging in local art galleries all around the country. Whether Jane is honoring the precious past or preserving the beautiful present, her pieces of art evoke a feeling of connection and - most importantly - tell a story.
