Artist Bio

I have been expressing my joy in art with paint, shapes, and colors since I was very young. I started as a painter, evolved into a photographer, and eventually began hand-painting on my Cibachrome prints over 35 years ago. Before Photoshop, I found a way to express a new magical reality with the vivid, saturated, and unrealistic colors I painted into each individual photographic print.

For the past 30 years, I have been scanning my one-of-a-kind hand-painted prints and my library of 35mm Kodachrome color transparencies taken over the last 50 years. I paint, combine, and enhance them with Photoshop, creating my own idyllic world!

My art has been shown worldwide in many solo exhibitions, including:
Butler Institute of American Art, Ohio; Colarinda Gallery, Lisbon, Portugal; MAD Gallery, Milan, Italy; Demenga Gallery, Paris, France & Basel, Switzerland; Carnegie Art Museum, Oxnard, CA; Laguna Art Museum, CA; Petersen Automotive Museum, LA, CA; LA County Natural History Museum, CA; Monterey Museum of Art, CA; Nancy Hoffman Gallery, NYC, NY; L’Image Gallery, Rome, Italy; Louis Stern Gallery, West Hollywood, CA; Wall Space Gallery, Santa Barbara, CA.

I have been included in countless group exhibits and Art Fairs around the world. It has been in many magazines, on book covers, and in two museum exhibition catalogs, and two books have been published of my art, Garden Tales and Car Tales. Over the last 15 years, I have had the honor of being asked to install my art in many wonderful public spaces, mainly at UCLA and UCSB, all on exhibit indefinitely!! I installed more than 70 large artworks at the UCLA Law Library and UCLA Anderson School of Management, including a 5'x10' commission.

In 2018, I had a 4-month exhibition entitled “Jane Gottlieb Photographs France” at the UCSB Art, Design & Architecture Museum!
