Jane Muir creates these unique hand painted figures, representing stereotypes or archetypal characters. The figures are hand modeled, which gives Jane the freedom to experiment with the clay, constantly modifying and adjusting her creations as they emerge.
It is their anonymity that allows us to identify for ourselves familiar individuals. Subtle colour and seductive surface textures are key elements in her work; immensely appealing but never sentimental.
Her work has been exhibited widely throughout the UK, Europe, America and Japan.
