Painter and Mixed Media Artist

Artform: Mixed media, Painting

Jane has been an Art Teacher for over forty years. She loves inspiring students in her Winter Art Workshops, Monthly Newsletters, Wednesday Wanders and her hugely successful Art Retreats.

Her art work is inspired by childhood memories, extensive travels, history of art studies, meditation practices, music and daily walks with her lovely dog Gem. She simply loves moving paint around the canvas and adding layers of colours and textures until a natural conclusion is reached. Her knowledge of composition, colour, texture and mark making techniques help her to capture a moment in time and the essence of spirit.

Jane says “as a contemporary Artist, I so enjoy painting intuitively. It’s like unravelling layers of spiritual emotions and I particularly enjoy when someone resonates with one of my paintings by tapping into its magical connection or special energy. I believe that every picture tells a story and everyone sees a different picture. Most of my art work can be viewed or displayed in different orientations bringing great versatility to the finished painting.

In contrast, I love the precision involved in painting commissioned pet portraits. Clients love how I capture the true ‘essence of spirit’ of their pet’s personality. I think this is all down to my experiences of working so closely with cats and dogs for most of my life.”

Jane’s art work can be purchased from The Purple Gallery, Bournville, Birmingham, various exhibitions throughout the year or by visiting Jane by appointment in her Studio in Alvechurch.

Jane has demonstrated her intuitive art process at numerous Art Society Events over the last few years and has been very well received.

Much of her art work appears on her website www.janeastonstudios.com and she can also be found on instagram @janeastonstudios and @artretreatswithjaneaston
