About Me

'Captain Jack' digital painting

Hello!

I'm Jane Gould, and I love to create every day, and spread a little happiness with my art.

I've always loved being creative and it's been fun over the years to learn to use lots of different art mediums, such as acrylics and watercolours; and create items using many creative skills such as ceramics, batik, macramé, crochet, glass painting, paper mache, jewellery and photography.

'Manhattan Skyline' digital painting

I studied GCSE and A Level Photography at night school, and as a mature student a 2-year GNVQ Art and Design (Distinction) with A Level Media Studies; followed by more night school learning - City and Guilds Decorative Painting Techniques, followed by many online tutorials on Skillshare, increasing my knowledge further in watercolours, and more recently digital art using Procreate on the iPad.

I enjoy making art that's bright and colourful and love to add a little glitter and iridescence when I can! (See my Gallery!)

'Rainbow Peace Doodle' digital drawing

I'm inspired by nature, particularly birds, and the night sky - nebulas, galaxies, stars and planets; and the seaside, and love to visit the Isle of Wight and Bournemouth as a family when we can.

My hubby and I home educate our 3 kids and we live in the historic city of Southampton with our pet budgie, Bucky.

If you have any questions just send me an email, and I'll get back to you within 24 hours.

Jane
