Jane Kriss has over thirty years of experience in the visual arts, with a career spanning graphic design, fabric design, fine art, and illustration. She was a visiting artist at the American Academy in Rome in 2010 and 2012, and is currently an Instructor in the Stanford Continuing Studies Program.
Jane is the author of Next Stop Sausalito, a portrait of the town where the Golden Gate Bridge ends. It’s Jane’s homage to mid-century illustrator M. Sasek, whose work first captivated Jane at age 8 when her parents gave her Sasek’s This is Rome. Next Stop Sausalito features over 85 color illustrations.
Most of the original gouache illustrations are available in the Gallery.
