Jane
Marshall — Birmingham, AL
Painter-in-residence, April 2003
"My three-week stay has meaning for me
beyond words. It has been a quiet time of awe to behold
this environment. My journey as an artist has taken many
turns, but this has profoundly affected the art I created
here and will continue to affect the vision of my expression.
The passion was renewed and my belief reinforced. This journey
to A Studio In The Woods will be with me forever."
Jane Marshall is an artist of great versatility
and depth. She is a painter, printmaker, sculptor, fabric
and book artist who goes deeply into her subject matter
including nature and the great themes and figures of history,
mythology and literature. Jane is deeply involved in the
natural environment and its preservation and subject matter
for all forms of her artwork as she spends hours at a time
in one spot quietly observing and drawing the wild and plant
life around her before she even begins her artwork.
