Jayne Dion

Jayne began her career 30 years ago as a muralist for prominent Newport coast homes in California.

This exposure led her to become the resident artist, lead set designer and prop stylist for South Coast Plaza . A luxury shopping center located in the heart of Southern California. Jayne’s desire for more inspiration took her outside California’s plethora of museums and theater to New York City then to Long Island, rich in culture and deep history. After many years of vacationing along the Great South Bay Jayne was able to expand her art shows to Long Island.

Primarily a self-taught artist, Jayne went back to college at age 45 to study sculpture and illustration. She earned a certificate in illustration and animation with the vision of bringing her drawings and paintings to life. Jayne’s art is inspired by her love of vintage photography, dream interpretation and especially her love of sketching in trees as a child, Trained in multi-media’s of ink, oil, clay and metal, which she uses in all her body of work. Jayne has perfected her craft to showcase many forms of media in a single art piece.

Jayne’s passion for creating art began long before her career as a muralist, when one of her pencil drawings was published in 1981, at age 14, for a book of student poetry. Since then she has been published 3 additional times: The Wall Literary Journal, volume XII, 2012, volume XIII, 2013 and volume XIV, 2014 as well as a feature in the December 2011 issue of O.C.
