Meet Jane Todd Butcher ~

"My art is part memory, part impression from a lifetime of enjoying the outdoors. I’m especially interested in conveying the many moods of nature and the importance of conserving our forests and natural resources."

Most of Jane Todd Butcher’s current paintings utilize a combination of water-based mediums including acrylic paint and acrylic inks, and often include rice papers and other papers which she incorporates to create textures and interesting surfaces. Sometimes the surface itself suggests a composition and leads her as she develops the painting.

Jane is originally from the Midwest, but has adopted the Carolinas as her home for most of her life. The richness and variety of the Carolina landscapes from the mountains to the coast continues to provide the source for her art. She received a B.A. in Art from Illinois State University, and has earned signature membership in the South Carolina Watermedia Society and the Georgia Watercolor Society. She teaches workshops in water media and mixed media painting. Jane’s work has received awards throughout the Southeast, and is included in numerous corporate and private collections.
