The other side of Jane’s talent lies in her abstract guitar paintings. There is a uniqueness to the style that is hard to define, but it’s almost visual art you can hear. With techniques ranging from muted colours and just a ghosting of a guitar, to bold brush strokes, paint splatters and vibrant palettes, each painting allows you to feel the music associated with it. You can hear Willie Nelson’s country strumming on Trigger or a ripping guitar chord on Eddie Van Halen’s Frankenstrat. If seeing and hearing wasn’t enough, the layered texture and heavy paint layers add a 3-dimensional quality you want to touch. These aren’t just paintings, they are musical, visual sculptures that transfix the viewer and immerse you in the music.Bruce Cockburn loves his guitar painting in his San Francisco studio.
