Indian Dance is an original painting by Jane Wachman. The bright colours and Jane’s free flowing use of line makes this a liberating piece. Jane Wachman is available online and in our gallery at Wychwood Art. My paintings are inspired by travel. Pulling together memories of places I have travelled to through mark making. Influences as far as India and Morocco sit alongside more familiar places such as the Sussex Downs and Irish coastline...
