MEET JANE DILL


I’m Jane Dill, an abstract artist and dedicated art teacher immersed in the colorful culture and textured landscapes of San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. 

I use plaster texture, acrylic, layering, and asemic writing to create vibrant, expressive paintings that capture the energy and spirit of this unique city. For the last 10 years, I've been sharing my passion with students of all levels, creating workshops where anyone can unlock their artistic potential. As an active and engaging mentor, I guide my students through experimentation and critique, igniting their creative spark and helping them discover their own unique vision. Come create your own masterpiece! I teach workshops every month at the Galeria San Francisco here in San Miguel de Allende, MX.

WHAT STUDENTS ARE SAYING . . .

“As an art teacher with an MFA, I’ve taken many workshops over the years—but Jane Dill’s texture painting class in San Miguel de Allende stands out as one of the most exceptional. It was not only an inspiring and skill-rich experience, but also a beautiful way to explore a new side of painting. She shares her vast knowledge with such generosity and heart, making the experience enriching for seasoned artists like myself while still completely accessible for beginners.”

“I am a self-taught beginner, Jane Dill’s class gave me the confidence to carry on forward and do what I love. So many new ideas, new tools, using texture, colour mixing, it’s all covered . . . and can say that she is one of the best art instructors I have ever had the pleasure of working with and learning from. She is very organized, provides easily understandable instructions, does ample demonstrations of processes and is creative. She is also excellent for both experts or newbies-to learn from.”

“Jane’s Texture Painting workshop was superlative. In a systematic and understandable language Jane showed us (and had us utilize) principles of texture, line, form, colour and composition. Jane is extremely smart, thoughtful, warm and receptive to questions. It was a fun, non-threatening and supportive environment for beginners and more experienced painters alike. ”
