Jane and Paul Rux live in Mt. Horeb, WI. It is rich in Norwegian heritage and offers a unique "Trollway" and "Little Norway" living history site. Jane learned Rosemaling from Norwegian-American experts in Mt. Horeb and nearby Stoughton, WI. Stoughton is rich in Norwegian heritage, e.g. annual "Syttende mai" (May 17 Norwegian Constitution Day) run. Jane also has studied Rosemaling at the famed "Vesterheim" Norwegian folk art teaching center in Decorah, Iowa. To further refine her skills, Jane has traveled to Norway to study with Rosemaling experts there. Rosemaling "captured" Jane over fourteen years ago. Jane wants to teach other Rosemalers now. |
