Jane Hoggard
Jane’s work takes a lighthearted view of traditional genre - still life, landscapes, abstraction and assemblages. Working in focused bursts reflects Janes’ personality, a busy family life and an appreciation of the environment in Northern NSW where she lives.
Large and small scale works showcase her proficiency and dexterity with mixed media. Energetic yet sensitive line work dominate her work with illustrative drawing practice her ‘go to’.
Evident in her experimentation of subject matter and mixed media compositions reveal hidden depths through multiple layering using collected snippets such as maps and manuals to create authentic, sentimental and curious ‘snapshots’ in her smaller works alongside acrylic, oil and charcoal in larger works.
Jane’s work is always well thought out, the individual characterization of her line work is exciting yet sensitive to look at. There is a freshness in her work and she uses mixed media without limits when building a composition.
