My inspiration
I am often asked who is my inspiration? There are so many great artists that I admire, marvel at, adore, and have been influenced by. However, my inspiration is from my dear late father, he was connected to the seasons and understood nature. He said to me many times - “learn to see beyond what you see and feel the emotion no matter what the subject, draw or photograph with that passion and in time, you will see”.
My dad, forever in my heart....... Edward Ernest Marchant (1911-1963).

Artist Statement
My name is Jan Lowe, I live on a small farm on Phillip Island, beautiful Victoria Australia. I am a professional exhibiting artist and tutor. “Art to me is all about the story, catching the animal or place's vitality, emotion, passion, and recording that moment, it’s a personal journey”. Painting animals and nature is something very special. However, whatever the subject, capturing the moment, the look of the creature or place, and interpreting that to the viewer. My preference is to work directly from life, from nature is essential, as is the mood or personality that animates the painting. My animals are done on scratchboard or watercolor, or if it is a scene, I use watercolor on paper or Claybord – dependent on the challenge! I exhibited internationally notably in the Czech Republic, France, US, UK, & Australia, and published in France, Germany & UK by invitation. 17.01.2023 |
Beautiful old wagon - something so graceful and a reminder of a former life. Dec '18.
My journey (My Mission):
My love is of all animals, unique places, the stunning environment - created by man or by nature – the subject will attract me, no matter what! So much beauty everywhere, land, sea, storms, mountains, the vast deserts and the colourful skies and how beautiful are raindrops, and imagine the feelings when snow flurries touch your face - WOW!
As an artist, it is my intention to tell a story though my paintings. To reflect the emotion that my subject/s had on me.
