Jane Lincoln was awarded an artist's residence by La Musee de la Grande Vigne in Dinan, France for the month of April
2001. She worked small in size in order to capture the quickly changing skies. She learned that Eugene Boudin began quick pastel sketches of the coast and these were a great inspiration to the
impressionists.
She preferred the subjects of the Emerald Coast of Brittany, just north of Dinan. Here the rugged cliffs and rich farms tumbled into the aqua ocean. She hiked the many trails and
locations painted by Emile Bernard, Camille Corot, Eugene Feyen, Yvonne Jean-Haffen, Mathurin Meheut, Pablo Picasso, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Henri Riviere, John Sargent, Paul Signac,and Edouard Vuillard.
The Cape Gallery in Falmouth displayed twenty-four of these French Landscapes in November and December of 2001.
