Welcome

I began studying art seriously at age ten at the Farnsworth School of Art in North Truro, MA with Helen Sawyer and Jerry Farnsworth, themselves students of Charles Hawthorne, a student of William Merritt Chase.

After majoring in Art at Stanford University, I took a detour into a career as a psychologist and only began painting again after I retired, twenty years ago. 

Since then I've been fortunate to be represented by galleries in New York, Santa Fe, Aspen, Boise, and Cape Cod. 

In 2013 I was given a one woman show at the New Britain Museum of American Art. 

Google "Illumination -Jane Bunker".

Over the years I have been influenced by photography, particularly the atmospheric Steichen inmagery. I am drawn to pastel Degas landscapes, charcoal Seurat drawings, representational Richters, Mondrian's early trees, Redon's flowers, and some of the more abstract Turners.
