Jane Seymour, Artist

I didn't know that English actress Jane Seymour was an artist, but the Wentworth Gallery - a US chain of fine art shops - has 77 of her paintings online (title link; select Seymour). She began painting a decade ago as a relaxing hobby. Shame the gallery doesn't show the dates of her works, so we could see how she has progressed. Some of them have that flat, lifeless quality of amateur painting, but this attractive impressionistic piece caught my eye: Little Red Bucket. Jane will be at the Wentworth Gallery branch in the Woodfield Shopping Center, Schaumburg, Illinois, to present her work on 3 & 4 October.
