Abstraction for Jane is multidimensional, open to the emotional, spiritual and intellectual consciousness essential in visualizing and forming imagery. There is an equal emphasis on content, execution and media. Her paintings are a synthesis of her love for painting, composition, music, nature and the study of various levels of consciousness in meditation.
For Jane it is the process of painting that allows her to embrace, channel and access the energy of her psyche, her intuition and the spiritual, making it possible to merge both her inner and outer worlds. And it is the spontaneity of the paint that allows the experience in painting to become a celebration for her. Through this dance of painting, she can find image even though she cannot always identify the source. The very act of painting helps to bring the events of the day together. The process of painting enables her to portray many planes of life experience, and the energy that runs through her brings it all together.
The influence of Joan Mitchell, Jackson Pollock, Frank Stella, William de Kooning, Terrence LaNoue, Nick Cave, and Elizabeth Murray, just to name a few, give Jane the inspiration to work in the style that personally suits her.
