Artist, Jane Skingley made a surprise visit to Hungerford Arcade looking for broken china to make mosaics. Jane is famous for her oil paintings but also loves mosaics. Of course, we obliged and Jane was thrilled with her collection. Jane Skingley paints seascapes and landscapes in oils. Her first exhibition was a sell out and since then she has gone from strength to strength exhibiting in galleries and art shows all over the country. In 2008 her work was selected from a long list of hopefuls to be exhibited at the summer season at the prestigious Glyndebourne Opera House.
Jane’s mainly large scale paintings focus on the mood evoked by the sea. She says: “I spent much of my childhood sailing around the British coast which remains my inspiration. I now enjoy pottering by the sea with my children, crabbing, rock pooling and making sandcastles at our family beach hut in the Witterings or indeed anywhere by the sea".
