Welcome! I’m so happy you are here.

I’m Jane, a writer, poet, artist and creative mentor based in Aotearoa New Zealand.

My work explores the relationship between writing, drawing & the non-human world. 

I’m particularly interested in acts of allyship; how we understand and communicate with place.

How our creative work might serve to better protect it. 

How creativity can deepen our sense of belonging to and with each other. 

I love writing of the beauty that remains, and of what it takes to lead life with art.

I would love for you to join me. You can read some of my writing or join my interwoven community over here on Substack.

 

 

 

“There are practices I find that I rely on: the textured pages of my sketchbook, my black tip pens. I draw carefully, reverently, feathers, outlines, pay attention to anatomy. I am learning to pray; in all the ways ink and paper calls me to listen.”
