ABOUT Jane
Jane Springfield’s landscape paintings, based on hiking and backpacking trips all over the world, have been accepted in many prestigious exhibitions and have won numerous awards. Her favorite painting locations are national and state parks. She is drawn to the spontaneous nature of watercolor that allows quick interpretation and unexpected results in her work. She also works in oils, primarily in plein aire. On location or in her studio, she creates paintings inspired by what she sees on travels or in local scenes.
Jane is a native of Atlanta residing in Marietta, Georgia. With a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the University of Georgia, she has been an artist all her life and turned to full-time painting twelve years ago. In previous careers she was an agency art director, catalog producer and high technology marketing director.
A Signature Member of Georgia Watercolor Society and a Member of Excellence with Atlanta Artists Center, Jane is active with several other art organizations. She exhibits locally and nationally and has had several one-woman shows of her work. She was selected as the Artist in Residence for Sapelo Island in 2008 and is a member of Ossabaw Artists’ Collective, a group of 12 artists who visit Ossabaw twice a year to create images of one of Georgia’s fragile barrier islands.
