A native of Lake Quinault, Washington in the Olympic
Rain Forest, Jane gained an appreciation of the natural
beauty of landscapes early in her life. Her family home
was situated next to the Lake Quinault Lodge and offered
a daily treat of ever-changing and unsurpassed beauty in
all seasons.
Nearing retirement she began attending classes in
watercolor and later expanded her skills to include
painting in pastels, which has since become her medium
of choice. Jane has attended many workshops led by
Northwest painters she admires, and has also attended
workshops with nationally known artists.
Jane has traveled the United States, Canada, France
and England and her work reflects her appreciation for
the special beauty these places possess. She has become
an accomplished photographer and uses her photographs as
inspiration for her artwork. She takes great pleasure in
relating her art to these favorite places and sharing
them with family and friends.
