Jane Ostler is based in Colchester, Eastern
Uncomfortable, flawed images, which hide behind an attempt to seduce with conventional depiction. Frustrated that to fully appreciate my work you have to have it explained to you, I try to make it work on a gut-level. My art education alienates the popular audience and my pictorial language is dismissed by the art elite as not new.
