Jane Nordin studied art at the Los Angeles County Art Institute. As a child, she was especially fascinated with the way of life of Native Americans. Later as an adult, she got the opportunity to paint members of the Rio Yaqui Indians. She was able to paint them on their own territory located in the State of Sonora in Mexico. These paintings from the 1950s and 1960s are Jane Nordin's most acknowledged works. Her paintings have appeared in a variety of magazines and newspapers around the world.
