Jayne Walther in her studio in Raleigh, NC
Jayne Walther Raleigh, NC
my journey. In fact, in 2014, my photographs of pollen illustrating neural pathways landed me a place in an internationally juried show “Science Inspires Art: The Brain” at the New York Hall of Science.
1. Describe your journey to becoming an artist. My journey to becoming an artist has not been a direct flight. It has had many stops and layovers along the way. Like most children, I loved making art. I also had a strong interest in design. I would spend hours with my friend redecorating our bedrooms. I even painted my bedroom orange when I was twelve, without permission. At age five I would move things around in my home telling my parents my “eyes hurt” so I need to fix things.
In 2015 I became a resident artist with a private studio at Litmus Gallery and Studios in downtown Raleigh. The trend of growth continued, with my responsibilities blossoming at Litmus to now include planning the yearly exhibits, and being the juror for many our exhibits. 2. What is your process for creating? I don’t see things the way most of the world views things, and I do see things most of the world doesn’t see. I have always been a bit outside of the box. I am empathic. Therefore, the first step in my process starts with feeling sensitivities. While meditating or observing nature I sense an energy that I want to share.
In 2012, my son graduated high school, and I began the next leg of my journey. Now, I was ready to devote 100% of my time to sharing my art with the world. I crafted a personal art study program, taking drawing classes, and workshops in every medium, including photography.
I don’t start with any preconceived idea of what a painting will be. It’s pure intuition. I am guided by my feelings. I do consider color, line, form, and composition along the
I had good success at juried shows, which gave me the validation needed to continue

way. It’s in the background of my mind. It’s sort of like cooking without a recipe - the more familiar I am with my materials, the more comfortable I am on autopilot.
The study of mindfulness has been invaluable to my growth as an artist as it provides insight into self-awareness. There is so much to share about that topic, but I’ll say having awareness of how you perceive things is key.
I really like to draw. I find it to be a meditative experience. Sitting with a piece of paper and a pencil is very relaxing for me. However, I chose to create abstracts because I perceive the world in this way. It’s a big challenge for me to create something out of nothing. I guess it’s also my way of provoking the viewer to look at things differently. The uniqueness, and unpredictability of an abstract attracts me, it makes me feel alive.
4. What’s next for Jayne Walther? In the last few years I have done a few solo exhibits. Typically, my exhibits are rather large productions. I like to schedule community outreach programs, and workshops during my exhibits. This is a tremendous amount of work. I am taking a break this year to regroup and work on a few new bodies of work. The series “Thoughts” will be finished soon. I will then launch into the next series “Lessons from Nature”.
Having an interest in interior design, I do attempt to incorporate the latest Pantone colors in my work. It’s a challenge every year, this year it’s Ultra Violet. I happen to like purple; it’s the color of enlightenment. So, I am happy to put this color into our world, as we need lots of purple at the moment.
Since I regularly sell pieces of my art from my studio on First Fridays I will continue to invest in growing my art business. I am considering different ways to expose more people to my art. I hope to expand my reach by finding a few galleries that are a good match for my work and creative vision.
3. How does your study of mindfulness and Buddhist principles affect your art? My studies have helped me to settle my mind to discover that soft voice that guides me. This allows me to get out of my head and create from my heart. It has also brought me to a place where I feel a great sense of connection and love. I am able to freely create in a non-judgmental way keeping my inner critic from getting the upper hand.
Sometimes we can control our plan and other times it unfolds in very unexpected ways. It’s hard to see what is in front of you…you only get so much of a glimpse. Then, you just need to trust that it is just where you need to be. If you would like to schedule a studio visit, you may reach me by phone/text 919-4141083 or go to my website www.jaynewalther. com then click on the contact tab, You’ll see a calendar where you are able to schedule an appointment. _________________________________ We spoke at length with Jayne and could not possibly fit all the exciting Q&A in this short article. To read the full version, please visit: www.artguidemag.com/art-news-blog/ jayne-walther-artist.
I use my art to subtly teach and or bring attention to this wisdom. I draw upon mindfulness principles that I want to convey or nature for inspirations. I am currently working on a series called “Thoughts”. It’s interesting because when painting I have noticed that I perceive my thoughts as circular, I wonder how others perceive theirs? I also am very much attracted to the wabi-sabi aesthetic so some of my work could be viewed this way. My artist statement can be summed up into four words. “We are all one”. I came to this realization after many years of meditating. I am going to contribute as much as I can to push this message of interconnectedness out into the world.

Pets and People
the only form of documentation of people’s day-to-day lives so as animals gained importance in peoples’ lives, their resurgence in art grew.
311 Gallery May 3 - 26 Opening May 4, 6-9:30pm
Artists have long enjoyed the soothing and therapeutic effects of sharing their lives and work with a pet; as more people are working from home, the relationship between man and animal is intensifying. And with that increased bond comes a desire for portraits of pets.
If you are lucky enough to have an animal companion you understand the loving bond that exists between man and beast. No matter how tough life gets, to be greeted with unconditional love and enthusiasm each time you walk in the door, is a true gift.
Some see paintings and videos of pets as silly and unworthy of serious attention but there is a reason that these works of art often go viral on social media. Our pets are a steadfast element of our busy lives and an integral part of our wellbeing. They love us unconditionally; what a great gift! 311 Gallery has asked artists to share their love for the animals in their lives. Their work will be on display for the month of May in the main gallery.
From Stone Age cave art to Broadway, human storytelling has included animals as an important part of the narrative, often using them as symbols for human behavior or to explain our bond with the natural environment. It was in the 19th century that artists began adding animals to domestic scenes for more sentimental reasons. As dogs, cats, and birds became common companions, artists began including them in portraits as both a symbol of wealth and status, and for the insight they provide into the subject’s personality. Before photography, painting was

Trena McNabb, Let’s Talk About the Weather, acrylic, 30” x 60”
Entanglements is an exhibition of new work by Elizabeth Bradford. Bradford is descended from generations of North Carolina farmers and her work reflects an inherited preoccupation with the land. Among Bradford’s influences are the Pattern and Decoration movement of the 70’s, the innovations of late 19th century European painters, and the formal structure of Abstract Expressionism.
Each painting tells a story. Trena McNabb’s work reveals a deeper meaning through a connected series of smaller overlapping, transparent images. Unique blending of science, realism, and fantasy upon contrasting white. Opening reception May 4, from 6-9pm; thru May 31. Lee Hansley Gallery 1053 E Whitaker Mill Rd.
