Meet Jane Schmitz

Art that began with a quiet spark and became a bold new life

Smiling woman with blonde, curly hair in front of colorful abstract art, wearing a white embroidered blouse.

From a high school art room in Minnesota to sold-out shows in Portugal, Jane’s journey with art has been anything but ordinary.

She gave up art after a painful college experience and didn’t return to it until decades later, when her husband gifted her brushes during the 2020 lockdown. That gift reignited her passion for becoming an artist. She painted, shared, and sold her first works online. And just as her art was blooming, she experienced the deep loss and death of her husband John, who was her #1 fan.

Jane chose to keep painting. She moved to Portugal, built a new life, and poured her heart onto the canvas.

Today, her vibrant, soulful pieces are collected by people around the world, and now you can have the privilege of hanging one of these beautiful pieces in your home.
