Jane Autry

Artist BioNila Jane Autry"One person can make a difference..." JFKJane grew up without a clue that she was born to be an artist. It wasn't until her junior year in highschool that she took her first art class, and although greatly intimidated by other students in theclass, she did her best and found the process thoroughly enjoyable. Today she finds and makes timeto paint, loving every minute of it. Having taught high school and college level art for more than 20years, and faithfully painting every possible moment, she hopes to successfully market her artwork tothe whole wide world.In her pursuit of excellence she has been inspired to paint LDS Temples. In doing she, she found thatshe needed more training. She literally spent about $20,000 on portrait workshops from the bestaround, and invested in the necessary equipment to paint on location, ‘en plein air’, with manyaccomplished artists. She now feels she is ready to tackle the difficult challenge the Lord has givenher, to paint LDS Temples from all over the world, and occasionally when commissioned, she willpaint families and couples in front of their chosen Temple.Her belief is that we can all be great, we can all put our best foot forward and seek inspiration andguidance from our higher power on a daily basis. One does not need to be perfect to be wonderful.What she wants out of her artistic life is to leave a legacy of faith, determination and courage. Shewants her art to be collected and treasured by those who seek beauty, peace and fulfillment from thevisual images they surround themselves with.Her work is highly idealistic, much like the old masters with an emphasis on eternal themes, using ageold techniques, but employing modern tools and supplies. This includes a much brighter colorpalette, with an old fashioned twist, which she loves!She is an idealist to the core, an artist who cherishes high and noble principles.“Better than a thousand days of diligent study is one day with a greatteacher.” — Japanese Proverb”Grantsville, Utah435-228-8217nilajaneautry@gmail.comnilajaneautry.comjane-autry.pixels.com(prints)
