About the Art of Jane Welsh
Jane Welsh creates art to uplift people's spirits, to brighten their homes visually and energetically. She celebrates the joy of life with sculptures of people 'in the joy of living', with her images of people dancing, or the joy in bright colours and rich opulent textures in her abstract paintings.
Jane's current focus is on our connection to nature. Her work tunes into the beauty, serenity and wisdom within nature and the importance of caring for the natural world. Jane is passionate about giving back to support natural ecosystems and animals, and her current work captures the beauty of that reciprocal relationship.
Jane portrays feelings on the faces of her works of art, many people have said she even captures the soul. Her art rejoices in the beauty and wisdom of a face experiencing peace, the childlike playfulness of children playing in carefree abandon on a beach, or the wisdom and strength of an animal in its habitat.
Jane's work epitomises the deep connection between us, our spirit, the trees, animals and all that live on this beautiful planet. Her art is transformational and has the ability to arouse emotions, release energy and brings light and joy to your home or office space.
