Artist Bio
A native of Mississippi, Jana began her studies as a child under artist Bob Tompkins in Greenville. Shortly thereafter her family moved to Tupelo; life was busy, and she abandoned her art until the fall of 2020. Under the tutelage of pastel artist Mandy Ellard she began exploring painting again, and reunited with Bob to continue her oil studies in April of 2021. A resident of Madison, MS, Jana paints at the Bob Tompkins Studio. Her works can be seen privately and at Jackson Street Gallery.
