Born and raised in New Zealand, Jane Kellahan, now based in London, seeks her inspiration from nature and spirituality. For Kellahan, painting describes her most inner experiences, which enables her to transfer emotion into motion - meaning painting using only her fingers, has given Kellahan's work a unique trademark. This approach allows her mind to relax and let creativity flow.

Mark Amery, Art Reviewer describes her work as "streams of energy within hazy colour“. This clever technique creates soft, misty effects. She uses strong, vibrant colours. Kellahan’s work has been commissioned for private and corporate collections in New Zealand, Australia, America, England, and Scotland. In addition, Kellahan will be exhibiting in Soho, New York later in the year.
