JANE THEODORE

Jane Theodore lives and paints in Guelph, ON Canada. With a background in graphic design and illustration, she has had a successful career as a print-maker. In 2013, Jane shifted her focus exclusively to painting. Jane’s work is a process-driven, spontaneous exploration of gesture, form and colour. Compositions are revealed as layers of paint are added and subtracted, forms appear and disappear, and the paint is scratched or scraped, exposing what lies beneath. Working on both paper and canvas, the paintings’ foundation is high-intensity colour, and invites an intuitive and visceral reaction. Jane’s latest paintings are joyful, fresh, buttery smooth and energetic, the work never appears overworked or tired. This is visual candy created by an experienced hand motivated by pure originality of thought. Jane’s inspired visual delights parallel the finest confections, they always leave you wanting more
