FROM JANE M MASON, is a company focused on art. We use the teaching of art, art history and creativity to bring inspiration and compassion to the world. We champion critical observation, creative thinking, and the child-like quest for learning. The company’s products include instructional videos. By demonstrating painting, the popular videos on YouTube present a process of working toward a successful outcome, no matter what the challenges. Primarily created "en plein air" (which means painted outside in the great outdoors,) the videos are taped live with the normal challenges faced by painters, such as wasps, bees, wind, lightning, changing light conditions, bitter cold, insufferable heat, visits by passing dogs, and the rest. Through active narration and sharing challenges with the viewers, the videos weave problem solving, art techniques and art history with discussions about cultural sensibilities as they related to art. Other products are workshops, classes, coaching for artists, lectures, and a collection of fine art (works on paper) and textile art for sale.
