• Invest in an upcoming artist I am Jane Ianniello, a well-known Brisbane artist and I have been finalist for all the major prizes for the past few years - Lethbridge 10,000, Rotary Art Spectacular, Moreton Bay Art Awards, Noosa Art Prize Stanthorpe Art Prize. I have also exhibited at various Brisbane and Gold Coast galleries.
• Spend hours exploring the mystery. My inspiration is b-grade Hollywood movies of the 1950s. I imagined the woman in Tutankhamun's Curse as part of Howard Carter's expedition team when they discovered Tutankamun's tomb in 1922 - unfortunately she understands she has been cursed as she breathes in the unhealthy miasma of germs from long ago!
