Crystal Cork Art Quarterly No. 8 presents:
Jayne Rose : Sojourn
Where: The Crystal Cork Wine Shoppe, 219 W. 1st Street, Dixon, IL
When: May 8, 2010 - August 1, 2010
Artist Reception: Saturday, May 8, 2010 6:00 - 8:00 p.m.
STATEMENT
My subjects are largely representational (with leanings towards impressionism)
based on observations of my surroundings, in landscapes, florals, and human
studies. I paint in saturated color with heavy emphasis on light, color, and shadows.
My digital camera and I are on the constant prowl for early morning or late afternoon
shadows. The lush florals I create in both still lifes and landscapes come from my
own gardens and those who live around me. Living in the Midwest gives me plenty
of subjects, from rural to city scenes. The quest to understand the nuances of nature
inspires me to keep searching and growing in this craft. I’ve just started using
acrylics in order to paint more quickly. Painting quickly has been a trademark of
mine and using other mediums has broadened my horizons. My vision will continue
to change as my life and the lives around me change.
BIOGRAPHY
Jayne was born in Mendota, Illinois. She studied Commercial and Graphic Arts at
Southern Illinois University and Los Angeles Trade Technical College. While in Los
Angeles, Jayne worked at an advertising agency as a Media Coordinator and
Graphic Designer.
Back in the Midwest, Jayne worked in both administrative and management
positions at publishing houses before joining IBM in Connecticut and Raleigh, NC
working in both administrative and graphics design fields.
In 2000, Jayne went back to her first love, oil and acrylic painting. While pursuing
here reconnection with her art, she worked part time for a graphics / website design
firm while volunteering for several arts groups. During the last few years, Jayne has
added workshop instructor, mural painting, and web/brochure design to her many
duties.
