Jane
Duckfield is Yorkshire born and educated, and divides her
time between painting, mainly watercolours, and as proprietrix
of a busy 'Cats Hotel' in rural Fife.Trained at the Forgan
Arts Centre and Dundee College, she was described by an art
critic at her first exhibition as 'painting tumbling landscape
in sonorous tones'. Seventeen years residence and love of
Scotland provide an abundance of both. Jane exhibits regularly
at galleries in Braemar, St Andrews, Cupar, Dunkeld, Pitlochry,
Dundee and Kircaldy, where she has been selected in both 1996
and 1997 for a Shell Expo Award at the Fife Artists' Exhibition.
The judges observed a beautiful familiarity with the landscape'.
Paintings by Jane have now travelled to most parts of the
world, from America to Australia, but family holidays are
taken in the beautiful Highlands and Islands of Scotland,
which feature strongly in her work
