Diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes in early childhood and later facing additional health challenges, including Lyme disease and hearing and sight loss, Jane has become a passionate advocate for mental health and wellbeing. Drawing from her own experiences, she focuses on reconnecting people to nature, imagination, and their innate sense of creativity, using her creative philosophy as a powerful tool for healing and growth.
This studio still life features a Brimstone butterfly, its vivid yellow wings rendered in delicate 18-denier silk stitches. Hand-modelled bluebells rise from a slender bottle discovered on a countryside walk, while silk threads used to create the woodland scene Periwinkle Woods in the background complete the composition.
