Artist Statement for Jane Stanfel

Born in Chicago in 1941, Jane developed a love of drawing and painting as a child bed-ridden with kidney disease, and art became her expression of her inner self. She won nearly every children’s art contest she entered. Though she studied the subject with private tutors in Florida and Texas, and took courses at Colorado State University, she feels she is mainly self-taught.

Her works, derived from minute observation of nature and man, are often based on drawings. By looking through the inner eye, she is able to invest her works with poetic feeling and transcendent significance which reveals the spirituality inherent in both.

While living in Bergen, Norway in 1994 she decided that she would capture in oils and watercolors the beauty of this wonderful land and its people, capture the beauty of the moment for everyone to enjoy. After eight years her labor of love consisted of over 30 oil paintings and many watercolors.

Ms. Stanfel has traveled to many lands, and this is reflected in her art. Her style, whether in oil, watercolor, pencil, or pen and ink, combines realism and impressionism. She feels that painting the details of the pictorial moment in rich, varying hues creates the reality of the painting.
