About The Work

Jane finds great inspiration in the Cornish coastline, and her works express the
sea’s captivating allure and sheer vastness. Glass possesses a special quality for this
purpose. Derived partly from sand, there is a certain magic in the glass returning to its
origins - an alchemical transformation. The process of working with glass serves as a
satisfying reminder of our insignificance within the grand tapestry of existence. Jane
hopes that her painted waves elicit nostalgic feelings and kindle a yearning to return
to the shore, or perhaps simply instil a sense of tranquillity and perspective within the
viewer’s own soul.
