New Zealand artist Jane Galloway’s creativity spans almost five decades beginning at Elam School of Fine Arts in Auckland then running a bag manufacturing business followed by a career as a landscape painter, greeting card designer, graphic print designer and lately, full circle back to her first love of abstract painting.
Some of her current output explores the disciplines of colour mixing and composition but she also embraces experimentation and play to give intuition a voice. The final works are not planned. The painting process is about letting go of the outcome and taking risks to see what emerges.
For Jane new styles and themes are beginning to reveal themselves and point the way towards an exciting body of new work.
Jane’s style can be currently seen as grid structures disrupted by looser marks and shapes. Some reference natural subjects such as plants and landforms while others are purely abstract and look to convey a feeling – all a work in progress.
