Jane Brighton

After attending the Slade School of Fine Art, specialising in painting and drawing, Jane went to the Institute of Education to qualify in the Art Teachers Certificate. Although painting has been her first love, Jane has also taught firstly in Uganda, and then in Further Education and main stream schools. A curiosity about the play of the unconscious in art led her to study art psychotherapy at Goldsmiths College. The Slade and Goldsmiths training gave Jane the space to use the freedom to experiment but also the structural discipline. Jane moved to the Cotswolds to set up the Postlip painters, running art and sculpture exhibitions and classes and music festivals.
