Jane Farrington

With a background in Theatre and Textile design, Jane taught Art & Design for many years at numerous F.E and H.E Institutions.

​

Through her work Jane explores The Magical World of Theatre and Performance to create imagery using combinations of mixed media, drawing and collage. 

​

These qualities are reflected in her striking and unusual pieces which are inspired by the traditions of Theatre and Pantomime.
