About Jan Lowe

Editor/Vice President (Australian Guild of Realists Artists)

Member of the Guild since early 2002. 2007 was Jan’s first year as Editor and working with members of the Guild, attending some wonderful studios and talking to some of “the best”. Painting & drawing has been her passion since a very young child—it was her escape! Although her professional responsibilities are demanding, she is looking forward to art projects in ‘09.

The winning of a minor award for her oil—Storms over Phillip Island—was an absolute thrill and is an inspiration to do more! She is now preparing for her third exhibition in July ‘09. Having met some wonderful artists and watched their work evolve over the year has been an honour and is looking forward to new challenges and working with everyone in 2009. As Editor, her aim is to give all members a bipartisan view and encourage their participation in exhibitions and entice their continued involvement & being aware of the Guild’s role to foster and support realist artists.
