Jane Burton Art

American

Jane Burton is a multidisciplinary artist unafraid of tall tasks and getting a little messy. In fact, she revels in it, allowing her artistry to flow freely as she expresses herself through dazzling abstract paintings and magnificent totemic sculptures.

A UC Davis graduate, Burton studied under American painters Wayne Thiebaud and Roy De Forest as well as American sculptor Robert Arneson during the late 1970s. Filled with a passion for making art, she continued into graduate school studying graphic design and eventually found herself working in a corporate environment. The pressures and timelines of the job took their toll on her and it took two special locations to reunite Burton with her passion for ceramics and painting. 

In Abiquiú, New Mexico, Burton worked alongside Indigenous potters which rejuvenated her imagination, culminating in the large figurative sculptures that she exhibited in her first solo show. Later, around 2012, Burton completed a six-week residency at the Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity in Alberta. In Banff Centre’s artist studios, which are stationed in the majestic Canadian Rockies, Burton made art on her own time and, free from pressures and deadlines, returned to painting.

Since 2012, Burton has been the recipient of three more residencies at the Banff Centre and one stay in 2020 at the Buffalo Creek Art Residency in Gardnerville, Nevada. She has exhibited extensively in California including at The Artery, a two-person show with abstract painter Donna McGinnis at William Merrill Gallery and serial exhibitions at Sonoma’s New Leaf Gallery.

Tim Nordin "VIII.1 Study" Signed Acrylic on Canvas Panel, Frameless Presentation
By Tim Nordin
Located in Miami, FL
"VIII.1 Study" BY TIM NORDIN (B. 1945) Acrylic on Canvas over Panel ⚜ Signed ⚜ Frameless Display A VIBRANT STUDY OF COLOR, TRANSPARENCY & STRUCTURE A rare and original acrylic on canvas over panel, Tim Nordin’s "VIII.1 Study" (1976) is a striking example from his renowned Transparent Sumi Brush Mark series. This work is defined by layered organic strokes of deep blues, vibrant greens, and subtle earth tones, forming a rhythmic interplay of color and light. Nordin’s distinctive brushwork creates a composition that shifts dynamically depending on light and perspective, a hallmark of his innovative approach. His technique results in an immersive, pulsating visual field—where each mark remains distinct yet seamlessly integrates into the whole. This meticulous layering and structured spontaneity connect his work to Abstract Expressionism, Op Art, and Color Field painting. This highly collectible piece was exhibited in Nordin’s 1982 Palm Springs Desert Museum exhibition and remains an essential work for collectors seeking dynamic gestural abstraction and structured color play. WHY COLLECT THIS WORK? ✓ Highly Collectible – A rare hand-signed original by Tim Nordin ✓ Exhibited Work – Featured in Nordin’s 1982 Palm Springs Desert Museum exhibition ✓ Optical Depth & Color Play – A dynamic surface with layered transparency & gestural brushwork ✓ Historical Provenance – From the Collection of Mr. & Mrs. Ricardo Sanchez, acquired directly from the artist ✓ Frameless Display – Ready to Hang – Presented in its original artist-preferred format ARTWORK DETAILS: ▸ Title: VIII.1 Study ▸ Artist: Tim Nordin (b. 1945) ▸ Medium: Acrylic on Canvas over Panel ▸ Year of Creation: 1976 ▸ Signature: Hand-signed, titled, and dated on verso ▸ Provenance: Collection of Mr. & Mrs. Ricardo Sanchez, acquired directly from the artist ▸ Country of Origin: United States ▸ Dimensions: — ◼︎ Image Size: 12 x 12.125 inches — ◻︎ Panel Size: 12 x 12.125 x 1.625 inches ▸ Condition: Excellent – Vibrant colors with well-preserved surface clarity ▸ Framing: Frameless Display (Artist’s Standard Presentation) – Ready to Hang INCLUDED DOCUMENTATION: ✓ Certificate of Authenticity ✓ Artist Biography Document ✓ Excerpts from the 1982 Palm Springs Desert Museum Exhibition Catalog THE ARTIST: Tim Nordin is an American abstract painter best known for his exploration of transparency, repetition, and structured mark-making. His work draws inspiration from a wide range of influences, including Mark Rothko, Sam Francis, Josef Albers, Kazimir Malevich, and the Optical Art movement pioneered by Victor Vasarely and Bridget Riley. While elements of his work reflect the gestural expressiveness of Abstract Expressionism, his approach to composition and structure aligns with Color Field painters such as Morris Louis and Helen Frankenthaler. Born in 1945, Nordin traveled extensively before settling in California, where he studied fine arts at Cerritos College and later earned his MFA at Claremont Graduate School, concentrating on printmaking and experimental painting techniques. Early in his career, he experimented with plexiglass, vinyl, and alternative surfaces, seeking ways to push the boundaries of traditional painting. By the 1970s and 1980s, Nordin became known for his Transparent Sumi Brush Mark series, in which he developed a meticulous method of layering individual brushstrokes to form structured, organic compositions. These works, featuring veils of fluid color and precise gestural marks, evoke the optical depth and rhythmic movement found in Bridget Riley’s Op Art...
