Jane Davenport is a professional Artist and the Author of 5 books. Her work has been exhibited internationally and featured in media as widely varied as the Wall Street Journal to Totally Wild. She has been described as one of Australia’s most successfully licensed artists with stationery, calendars, clothing and poster ranges featuring her artwork. And somehow she fits in being the chief designer for Concept Store, ‘The Institute of Cute‘ in Byron Bay.
Jane has a passion for the little things; ladybirds, (ladybugs), butterflies, damselflies, beetles, bees, frogs and the myriad of other tiny creatures that are seldom noticed, but exist all around us. She celebrates her passion for life in photographic, illustrative, painted and written form.
” I create my work to call to the gentler aspects of my own personality, to slow my pace, to observe and conserve. Lately I have folded the wider world into my work (but I still love ladybirds best, best, best!).”
I had to invent a word to adequately describe the specific and unique character of my work. I practice Artomology and describe myself as an Artomologist. I love bugs, photograph them and write books about them, but I am not an entomologist. I highly recommend inventing your own profession as being the only one of something, you are also the best in the world at that thing!” says Jane
