About the artist: Jane Burnham Crawford was born into a military family on July 5, 1926, in Omaha, Nebraska. She traveled frequently as a child with her family. From an early age, Jane loved art and kindled a creative fire her whole life. As a small girl, she made paper dolls for herself and her friends, and she took up painting, for which she would become best known and which guided much of her artistic career. In addition to painting, she was an accomplished ceramicist and seamstress, and she played the accordion and harmonica with abandon. Talented in oil, acrylic, and pastel, Jane made her mark as a watercolor artist. She was a highly regarded teacher, taking groups of art students around the world, painting with them in Japan, France, Mexico, Italy, and Greece. Jane was a student of philosophy and spirituality, and she frequently incorporated these themes into her teaching, connecting her craft to her joie de vivre to inspire her students. In this spirit, Jane founded the Paint Yosemite Workshop, which brought in renowned artists as instructors and eager students from throughout the United States and Canada. Jane was a featured instructor throughout her years in the Workshop, carrying out on-location lessons, demonstrations, and one-on-one instruction in Yosemite's meadows, under its dramatic stone monuments, and near its streams. She touched the lives of countless students throughout her life, staying in touch with many of them; she continued to offer lessons in her home well into her 80s. Jane Burnham died November 16, 2016 in Santa Cruz, California.

She spent years as a professional puppeteer and set designer, and developing her own unique watercolor painting style. Charlotte’s use of pointillism. Charlotte Huntley AWS, June Workshop Instructor “Charlotte Huntley has special insights into color and fresh approaches to cliche subject matter. Her work in watercolor is truly unique. Charlotte adapts the Pointillism of Seurat and other post-Impressionists and makes it her own in watercolor. With Pointillism, distinct points of primary colors create the impression of a wide selection of secondary colors. The technique relies on the perceptive ability of the eye and mind of the viewer to mix the color spots into a fuller range of tones. Charlotte truly makes the most of this style of painting. Over her illustrious career, Huntley has been awarded a signature membership in 29 watercolor societies, including the American Watercolor Society, California Watercolor Association, Transparent Watercolor Soc. of America, Northwest Watercolor Society, and Watercolor West.
