Jane Thompson was born and raised on a farm in the Southern Tablelands of NSW, Australia. An avid explorer, Jane has lived and workded in many places throughout Australia, including Broken Hill, the Kimberleys, Canberra, Sydney and now Brisbane where she lives her with two young children, one husband and one mischievous Beagle. Jane’s artwork is vibrant and full of moving energy. She is inspired and fascinated by the energy we create as human beings through our emotions, our intentions and our experiences. By tapping into the space that exits between thoughts, the active state of creating for Jane is conversely almost meditative, where she allows her sub-conscious to intuitively make the decisions and show her the way. Preferring to paint with no rules, no boundaries, no expectations and no plan of what it should be, the end result is a complete surprise to Jane. Through her brisk approach, deliberate use of contrast and expressive gestural marks, Jane’s art evokes joyful optimism, personal reflection and bold inspiration. Her paintings are colorful, imaginative, expressive and spontaneous. And the process absolutely always involves music.
