This is a photographic collection inspired by the fish eye lens , taking photos through glass balls and the idea of stretching the world around oneself . The environment is self contained as we are quite often in the modern world . Living in a bubble comes to mind ? The world in a round is very satisfying visually ; neat, tidy and collected. The surface tension holds all the energy beneath , keeping all under control like a bead of morning dew. The image pulls you in and wants to share the story with you. Many of the images I have chosen are from the local landscape . However, there are really no limits !

Many of these storytelling mixed media pieces have won prizes in the painting-en-plein-air competitions held throughout the summer in many different regions. I feel they sum up the atmosphere of these charming small towns, villages and hamlets . Here are just a few as many have found new homes in numerous other countries and in the local Mairies ( Mayors offices) .

Biography
Jane Appleton is a painter and photographer whose artistic journey is as eclectic as it is captivating. After studying contemporary jewelry, she had the prestigious opportunity to exhibit at the ICA in London. Determined to further explore her artistic expression, she then turned her attention to multimedia design, seizing every opportunity that came her way. From nightclub murals and illustrative maps of Brighton, to posters, business signage, portraits of homes and businesses, to 3D objects and photography, she has explored a multitude of genres which have mutually enriched each other.
More recently, Jane has focused on large oil canvases capturing the energy and dynamism of the society around her. Its goal is to capture a fleeting moment with elegance and sophistication. Her interest in storytelling has also led her to illustrate four books and create vernacular works using different mixed media on canvas.
His talent and dedication have earned him more than sixty prizes in outdoor competitions in France. She was particularly honored to win the Grand Prize at the Béziers International Plastic Arts Fair in 2016. Based in the heart of the French vineyards, Jane explores the often little-known life of this exceptional landscape. From the smallest insects to the largest mammals, she tells their stories through mixed media, inks and collages. For her, stories are everywhere, even in the vegetable garden!
Jane has also been a prolific photographer for forty years, developing her own images and adopting computer graphics techniques with passion. His love for working in 3D only reinforces his versatility and commitment to his art.

Situated in the beating heart of this stunning medieval small city nestled in the vineyards . I will be exhibiting an exciting new collection full of colour and movement. Lots of new techniques, stories and surprises . Can't wait !!
