ABOUT Jane Burton has been a maker since childhood, always ready to experiment and get her hands dirty. She holds a degree in Fine Art with an emphasis in painting, studying under renowned artists Wayne Thiebaud, Robert Arneson, and Roy DeForest. Her creative career began in graphic design, eventually shifting into marketing and management. In 2000, Jane returned to her artistic roots, sculpting larger-than-life abstract figurative forms in clay. During a 2014 artist residency in Canada, Jane picked up her paintbrush again, first exploring figurative works, then delving into abstraction. Jane brings fiery creative passion to her workshops, sharing her ideas and inspiration with artists at all levels. Her teaching style is relaxed, engaging, and hands-on while remaining deeply informative.
