Jane Kleinschmidt

Jane Kleinschmidt paints commisioned pets and people in pastel. She loves to find the character in her portrait renderings. Jane also loves to paint the mountains and forests of Montana in Oils. Working as a freelance computer graphic designer in Whitefish, MT she enjoys infiltrating her freehand illustration and painting into her graphic work. Jane is a member of the Whitefish Chamber of Commerce, and the Montana Arts Council. As a past volunteer with the Idaho Watercolor Society, Jane directed art shows, paint-outs and produced posters for the organization.

The Northwest Montana Humane Society featured her pet portraits in this year's 2010 fund raising calendar. It may be purchased at Amazon.com or at: http://www.hsnwmt.com

Jane participated in the Artist in the Wilderness program sponsored by the Hockaday Museum, Bob Marshall Foundation, Flathead National Forest and the Swan Ecosystem Center. The goal of the program is to introduce artists to the wilderness and to challenge them to expand their artistic skills and then share that experience with the public. Kleinschmidt spent 7 days in remote Forest Service cabin with her husband Steve and captured her experiences on canvas.

In December 2004, the City of Whitefish chose Jane’s design “The Skier” for it’s Centennial Coin - first minting - honoring Whitefish’s outdoor recreation. Coins are available for purchase at City Hall, Whitefish, Montana.
