Star here: I found artist Jane Faudree in a most unusual way; I went on a date with her ex-husband! One date was all he & I needed to see that we weren’t suited, but lucky for me, Jane and I got a great relationship out of that adventure!
Not only is Jane one of our gallery artists, she became a part of the Spectrum Art and Jewelry team. Her extensive art training brings a unique perspective to the gallery. Jane has never met a stranger; in fact, we joke that she appears to be related to everyone in Southeastern North Carolina! We can’t tell you how many times customers discover, after chatting with Jane, that they are in fact distant cousins! Here’s more on the outgoing and loving Jane Faudree.
