Jane Colden
Jane is a graduate of the Ontario College of Art where
she majored in textile design. After graduating she remained in Toronto
and worked as a design and studio assistant while producing and selling
her own woven designs. She returned to her hometown of Kingston Ontario
to raise her young family and when time allowed her to pursue her art
again, she surprised herself by picking up a paintbrush rather than
returning to the loom. Jane has been successfully showing her work since
1997. She has at least two exhibitions each year, showing primarily
in Kingston and Toronto, and her work hangs internationally. She also
gives back to the wonderful community of Kingston by generously donating
her work to many charitable foundations. As well, she inspires "up
and coming artists" by sharing her talents in community schools.
