About
She is the author and illustrator of several picture books including Lost and Found, created in collaboration with Fullstop Publishing. Alongside her books, Jane continues to develop personal projects through visual diaries and paintings. Through both books and exhibitions, she hopes her work can offer small moments of calm.
"I believe art should be accessible to everyone. Through picture books and illustration, I hope my work can reach people beyond gallery walls, appearing in homes, libraries, and quiet moments of reading.
While picture books are often associated with children, I see them as spaces for readers of all ages — including adults who still carry a sense of wonder and curiosity."

Jane (Manasawii) is an illustrator, author, and fine artist based in Bangkok, Thailand. Her work often begins with small observations from everyday life quiet moments, fleeting memories, or scenes that feel slightly dreamlike. Through drawing and painting, she transforms these moments into gentle narratives that invite viewers to pause and reflect.
