About Jane Schupay
I am inspired by my children, grandchildren and students, a long career in nursing, nature, animals, humor and lack of humor in the world. Except for mud pies as a kid, I did not touch clay until I was 51 years old. I was easily hooked, so I attended art classes after work and entered the wonderful world of creating art to balance my intense work as a nurse.
I am always fascinated that my hands can interpret my ideas through the ancient art form of clay. The Challenge of creating something new is exciting, and I find myself lost in the creative process, unaware of time passing... meditative, energy renewed, pain relieved. I find the camaraderie and creative inspiration of other artists in the studio essential. My heart is full when people admire my work.
I hope to work in clay as long as my fingers hold out as it provides endless creative fun and balance in my life.
