In a world where art is often seen as a luxury, seasoned artist Jane Tan stands out for her selfless dedication to using her craft for the greater good. At 77, Jane’s third and final solo exhibition, Beauty In My Eyes, showcases 21 stunning oil on canvas landscape paintings. Through this retrospective, she not only invites art lovers to enjoy her works but also provides an opportunity to support a noble cause—donating a portion of the proceeds to the Hua Ming Autism Society. We speak to Jane now to discuss her work, and to discuss how it reflects her personal motto, "When kindness meets kindness, the world becomes beautiful."
