ART INSPIRED BY NATURE

"The colours & varying light of the changing seasons bring me constant inspiration."

Jane Fuhrimann, Artist

AUTUMN

I love this time of year when the air becomes crisp & the scent of wood smoke lingers.


Autumn transforms the countryside into a rich tapestry of colours. The blackberries ripen in the hedgerows & bright red hawthorn berries cluster on branches between the bracken.
The petals on the last of the summer roses begin to turn brown and curl inward preparing for the colder days to come.
Tree canopies shift from vivid green to burning shades of copper and crimson, catching the slanted honey coloured rays of a lower sun.


The golden season is upon us.

ARTS CROSSROAD 2026 KUNSTMESSE LUZERN

October‘s highlight was being able to show three of my paintings in the beautiful Swiss city of Luzern. Together with the gallery Arts Crossroad, I was part of the exhibition at the stunning 17th century Kornschütte in the old part of the city.The paintings looked wonderful surrounded by the old stone walls and Autumn sunshine.Thank you to Asya for organising & curating the exhibition.

DAYS OF LIGHT EXHIBITION  MAY 2026

A huge thank you to everyone who came to my exhibition at the beautiful Schützenhaus in Ostermundigen on May 8th. I hosted the evening along with my dear friend & jewellery maker Alma @beadedknots 
The location was perfect & so many people came, making the event so special. Art & jewellery was sold & at the end of the evening the sun came out from behind the rain clouds creating the most beautiful sunset which was reflected in the puddles.

Though the exhibition has now ended, all artwork still available for sale can be found on my "Available for purchase" page. Click here to go there.​

LATEST CREATIVE PROJECTS

Some times of the year are more creatively productive than others and recently, despite the heatwave of July & August, I have been experimenting with using other material in my work. I have a large store of fabric from past upholstery projects and used some of it to cover two box frames.  I chose some cotton lawn for both projects  and carefully wrapped them around each frame. I framed an art print in one and an original artwork in the other. They will add texture and interest to your home & walls. 

The second creative project I undertook was to use some of my own artwork prints and other paper to make two textural collages. One inspired by the movement of the waves on the shore & one as a colour study for my large autumn abstract artwork. Both paper works are framed and available to purchase.

This month I'm giving a special mention to​​

             "Woodland Magic"

 

Framed, acrylic on canvas

30cm x 30cm

 

You can often see where the trees have reached out their branches to each other and formed tree tunnels which I've loved since early childhood.

​

​The interlaced branches create a storybook corridor reminiscent of a hidden fairyland.
