ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Secret Desire was inspired by the pulp detective magazine covers of the 1940s - I have appropriated an image of a pretty young girl and placed her in a surreal misty landscape with a giant voodoo lily. I have used acrylic paints and mediums for their versatility and vibrant colours.

Jane creates a variety of retro paintings. Her “Pop Art Pulp” paintings incorporate images from the covers of cheap popular magazines of the 1930s to 50s that were designed to titillate and excite their audiences. These covers used an illustrative or comic book style. Often Jane places the scared or startled cover model into an incongruous or surreal background. In Jane's "Wild West" paintings she appropriates movie stills of actors from classic Hollywood western movies of the 1940s and 50s and places the gun-toting protagonists in arid but beautiful desert landscapes. The mythology of the Wild West is based on the tough, self-reliant person who survives as best they can in the harsh and lawless frontier. Jane's "Hollywood Glamour" paintings use photos of glamourous Hollywood stars and place them against an exotic background. Her "Fairytale" paintings hark back to the traditional fairytales and myths that we all grew up on, and present them with a new twist. Jane's paintings capitalise on the vibrant clean colours and glossy nature of acrylic paints and gels, and subtly incorporate iridescent metallics and bright interference paints. In the past decade Jane has sold hundreds of paintings worldwide, been a finalist in many art competitions, and exhibited in major Brisbane and Gold Coast galleries.
