About

After 28-years as a studio artist and instructor at the Torpedo Factory Art Center in Alexandria, VA, Lane has settled in Bluffton, SC, just west of Hilton Head Island. Lane draws inspiration from the coastal light and lush landscapes. Her vibrant oil paintings are in private and public collections throughout the world.

“I embrace the world through color… oil painting is my joy and often, my savior.”

Lane’s evocative “spirit-scapes” are drenched in color using a loose impasto application along with old master glazing techniques. This creates oil paintings with unique textures and luminosity. Layers of brush work and palette knife application create depth and mystery within each canvas. A sensual use of color pays tribute to her mentors, the impressionists.

“When working from one’s imagination, a painting can only be coaxed… eventually the work must follow its own life-force, be it playful, forceful or impulsive.”        

Currently, Lane has an expanded studio and is showing her available paintings here and at her home in Bluffton, South Carolina.

The paintings on this website are available for purchase unless noted otherwise, please contact Lane for details.

See a sold painting you really like? Lane can draw inspiration from her body of work to paint a new creation just for you.

Commissions:

Available in select styles. Lane’s creative approach to the process invites you realize your vision through her voice and brush. The commission process creates a personal connection to the final painting.

All paintings are oils on deep sided canvases with the sides painted as part of the composition. This presentation gives a finished appearance which does not necessitate framing.
