"Tap Into Your Creativity" with Sandra Felemovicius

Thank you Jane Burton @janeburtonart for such an incredible interview filled with inspiration, excitement and your love of painting! 💥

Bio:

Jane Burton, a San Francisco based sculptor and painter, comes from a family that encouraged creativity. Her father worked in wood carving and jewelry. Her three sisters are painters, photographers, and sculptors.

Jane graduated from UC Davis with a BFA in painting and continued graduate work and a career in Graphic Design.

Twenty years ago, Burton left the corporate world and went back to her painting and sculpture roots.

In 2014, while attending a two-month art residency in Canada, Jane went back to her painting roots. Her passion lies in abstract expressionism with an emphasis on the language and physicality of the paint, the line, the brushstroke, the movement, light and color.

Burton’s work can be found both nationally and internationally in galleries, and corporate and private collections.

Statement:

“My visual language allows me to go where words can’t in expressing who I am at my core. My daily commitment with the canvas before me is to get out of my head, to set thoughts and words aside, and stream feelings directly.
I use many tools beyond brushes... leaves, branches, mops, plastic, knives, and most often, my hands.”
“The process is like a piece of music, a walk in the woods; it's a feeling of excitement, empowerment, and a deep connection all mashed together. If I can stay out of my head long enough, the resulting image is fresh, alive, and evocative.”
“There is a vibration, a communication and energy, that connects everything in this universe, and when I paint I feel alive and connected to that energy.”
“Nature, spirituality and science inspire my abstract paintings. I strive to create paintings that pull one in from afar, and will inform, change, and challenge in the detail up close.”

Here are the names of the Crayons and the canvas that Jane uses:
