Jane Sanders
My work is is an expression of colour, the natural world and ancient symbols in paintings and on fine ceramic bead jewellery.
Paintings
The paintings involve a love of landscape - sun, sea, sky, flora and fauna and then capture a moment in time with the seasons or light.
Most are in oil paints with some acrylic.
Another style involves using the creations of nature, leaves and tree bark as a background to paint animals and birds.
I have done some watercolours too, some of which are in The Really Wonderful Food Book, a collection of healthy recipes with a glossary of what nutrients do for you.
My painting has then extended to the medium of ceramic to create fine painted bead jewellery.
Ceramic Bead Jewellery
They are fashioned from earthenware clay and biscuit fired. They are then hand painted and glazed. This may be a pattern from ancient symbols or a complete landscape painted on an individual bead. These are then fired again, some in a traditional kiln and others in a Japanese Raku kiln which give a different range of colours and textures. If a real gold or platinum detail is added this then requires the beads to be fired a third time.
All the clasps and ear wires are sterling silver
