Jeane Granada Coutts was born in Granada, Spain.
She began painting at the age of four under her father Gordon Coutts'
direction and watchful eye. Jeane attended the
Otis Art Institute in
Los Angeles, California, where she received a full-time scholarship.
She received her Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Redlands,
California. Jeane currently holds four lifetime teaching credentials.Jeane Granada Coutts exhibits a free and fearless approach
to current issues and ideologies in her paintings, heralding mankind's
epochal, spiritual and psychological development. Some of her work
employs a strongly dexterous approach using the palette knife in place of
the brush. This is the case in the African series of oil paintings,
some of which are exhibited here at ArikiArt.com. Other works employ
delicate brush work. Her paintings are spontaneous, poetic,
impressionistic, realistic, and even surreal in their spiritual impact.
All of them demonstrate the passion that Jeane has for art, something that
drives her to often paint all night without stopping.
Jeane researches her subject matter, studying the music,
art, people, science and literature most closely representing her chosen
theme. Jeane Granada Coutts has exhibited her paintings
throughout California, including Los Angeles, San Francisco, and San
Diego. She has also exhibited in New York.
Jeane is continuing to paint in her Africa Series and
Animal series.
Her African Series celebrates the emotional and spiritual
quality of the people of Africa.
The Animal Series expresses the spirit of nature.
Jeane has been exhibiting various works from both of these
series throughout 2002 and 2003 in Southern California.

Jeane is currently working on several new series.
One is an Entertainment Series which portrays the excitement and energy of
contemporary musicians as well as individual singers and dancers.
Another series entitled Related Consciousness will express
the relationship of human being-ness with all of creation.
Also in progress is a Mother and Child series.
Jeane is also currently active teaching art. We
wonder where she finds the time and energy!
