Jane studied art and interior design in London back in the late 70's and then migrated into a commercial marketing career specialising in graphic art and printing. In 2012 she gave up work in London to pursue other interests and to dedicate time to return to her earlier love of art, design and crafts. Now she lives on a small farm and her main influences are landscape and nature. She also has a herd of alpacas who kindly surrender their fleeces once a year which she then uses for needle and wet felting along with other fibres. She paints in watercolour, does calligraphy and illuminated lettering using brush and pen and 3D crafts such as felting, papier mache and paper sculpture.
