Jane’s painting Primal Fear is inspired by the pulp detective magazines that were popular from 1930s to the 1950s – Jane has appropriated a cover image of a frightened fleeing woman and placed her in a dark pine forest with a cottage in the distance. In traditional literature the forest is seen as a dangerous, mysterious place where the rules of the everyday world and society do not apply. Forests invoke a primal fear linked to our evolutionary past, where dense forests could be dangerous places due to animal predators, human assailants, or getting lost.

Jane is a well-known Brisbane artist who has been finalist for Lethbridge 10,000, Rotary Art Spectacular, Moreton Bay Art Awards, Noosa Art Award, and Stanthorpe Art Prize. She has also exhibited at various Brisbane and Gold Coast galleries. Her paintings are held in private collections worldwide.
