At San Francisco State University, Jane received a B. A. in Fine Arts and Humanities. Jane has a lifetime credential to teach adults and children.

Jane Chamberlin has also studied with many accomplished artists. In Sculpture she worked with Richard Boyce and Gwenn Lux. As young girl, Jane studied with Hans Hoffman and Henry Hensche who maintained the traditions of the Sargent and Hawthorne Schools in Provincetown, MA. Jean Varda helped establish Jane's reputation as a colorist and collagist.

Jane's paintings and drawings have been exhibited at galleries throughout the United States. Her works are included in numerous private collections.
