Jane Digby

Passionate about the painting process, oil painter, Jane Digby, paints quickly and spontaneously in alla prima with a limited but rich colour palette, resulting in expressive and evocative paintings of significance. Jane’s artworks have depth of craftsmanship and emotion that keeps the viewer wanting more, questioning the character or scene behind the complex, layers of paint.
