A later work in Jane’s flower series, the style in this painting is more careful and refined – expressing perhaps the delicate and fleeting nature of the subject matter. This original work is painted in acrylics on a birchwood painting board.

Inspired by a photo of flowers Jane painted this work in hues of pink and orange conveying a playful interpretation of a bright sunny day in the garden. This original work is painted in acrylics on a birchwood painting board.

This painting inspired by summer flowers in a meadow on a bright sunny day, is one of a series of exciting brightly coloured new works by Jane. This original work in a fairly free style is painted in acrylics on a birchwood painting board.

This limited edition canvas print (framed in a natural wood tray frame) depicts a well-known and much loved view of Mahurangi harbour, inspired by a drive on Mahurangi West Road heading to Mita Bay. Just like the original painting this print makes a significant yet serene impact on any wall – as if looking out a window.

“What always brings me back to painting is the inspiration I get from the beauty I see. I find myself looking at the gorgeous view in front of me, envision it on canvas and then I can’t wait to get home to start painting. My painting process is always a work in progress too, so for me painting never becomes dull. I can see how my work has evolved in a more obvious way from water colour works to acrylic on canvas 20 years ago, along with more subtle changes over the years such as: a more muted colour palette, an increasing level of abstraction, and overall, more of a sensitivity regarding tonal qualities – all of which I find exciting.” Jane Puckey.
