The Art of Me

Welcome to my online galleries.
​
You will see that my art takes two very distinct directions - both of which will meander and split into more different smaller paths.

The major areas of my art are mixed media painting and photographic mandalas.  I am constantly learning and experimenting with new techniques and styles in both directions, some of which I will adapt and use and others that I will try once and then discard.  You will see by my galleries that each different direction of my art retains my own style - the soul of me, my Jaaneman Art.  Please enjoy.

The Macca Project

Marc Harrison - Husque
​Artist in Residence Bundaberg 2021

In May of 2021 I was invited along with two other local Bundaberg Artisans, to take part in a two week challenge with Artist in Residence Marc Harrison of Husque.  

​The challenge was to create saleable items from the waste product of the macadamia industry.
With the help of Macadamias Australia, we gathered leaves, tree prunings, nuts and ground shells and were given two weeks to come up with items that could be sold in their visitor centre. 

My designs (as seen below) involved scanning and photographing the sliced macadamia wood and using the images to create surface designs for items such as scarfs, bags and prints.   I also used wood offcuts to laser cut buttons and scarf rings.
