Jane Annois is a potter, a teacher, a tour guide and an exhibition organiser, to mention a few of her endeavours.
Her wonderful ceramic art works include beautiful raku designs and a range of 'Terre Vernisee', a French style of terracotta. Jane has exhibited throughout Australia, New Zealand and France and her work is in many private and public collections.
Passing on her knowledge and skills has always been one of Jane's passions and to achieve this she teaches in the tertiary, secondary and private sectors. Jane conducts classes at her studio in a quiet bushland setting in Melbourne's northeast.
Jane has trained and worked as a potter in France and she regularly returns there to exhibit at some of the 'Marché de Potiers'. Her love of France has led to Jane creating and hosting tours to sample the beautiful countryside, culture and people of France. Tour participants reap the rewards of Jane's well developed knowledge of French culture and people, linking into her exceptional network of French artists, scattered throughout some of the most picturesque French countryside.
Not content with these achievements Jane has also established Pottery Expo, an expanding series of ceramic art exhibitions that are held in various Australian venues. These events are an opportunity to present some of Australia's best ceramic artists to the public at high quality outdoor exhibitions. The Pottery Expo concept is based on the 'Marché de Potiers' - the Pottery Markets that are held throughout France each year.
