Artist Information
Jane is a graduate of the Guild for
Spiritual Guidance and has studied for
several years with multi-dimensional healer Greta Bro.
She has recorded several volumes of messages from
spiritual teachers in meditation. The latest published
meditations are included in her book,
We Are Here:
Love Never Dies
She has traveled extensively with her visual
art exhibits and original solo dramatic
performances. Finding in art a pathway to the heart
and spirit, Bernhardt uses creativity as a
vehicle for human transformation.
From
Auschwitz to Hiroshima, from Russia to our inner
cities, teacher, author, portraitist, and actor,
Bernhardt’s art has taken her all over the world.
A
third generation portrait artist and seasoned actor
of stage and television, graduating from the
American Academy of Dramatic Arts in Manhattan, she
poignantly combines her portrait skills and acting
in projects such as
the Hibakusha Peace Project.
The Project is a multimedia tribute to the
survivors of Hiroshima.
Using her art to change the
world, Bernhardt has delivered lectures on art and
social change,
led workshops in art and drama for schools,
and facilitated many retreats.

" I seem to be trying to change the world
through my art, in whatever form. Sometimes I am
just trying to wake myself up ~ to tell myself the
truth,
or give myself a gift...
But often I am
following a calling that gives me the strength to
enter extraordinary places and find the heart. It
can be a perilous journey: Auschwitz and Hiroshima
have hearts wrapped in unbearable pain. Strangely,
we need that pain to understand ourselves, and to
love again. Art can be quite a magician in
this
alchemy. There is nothing I would rather be
doing than
what I am doing"
