I was named Artist of the Year by the San Antonio Art League in 2019.

Chairperson Steven G. Smith shared a brief excerpt from one of the jurors' critiques:

"Jane Dunnewold’s artworks are an accurate reflection of the authenticity and creativity that exist at the center of her practice. Integral to the visual forms she creates is the foundational spirit at the heart of each piece. . . Her choice of working with fiber arts, an artform that has existed for thousands of years but has only recently arrived at the 'fine arts' table, democratizes the interpretive playing field, allowing further opportunity for personal meaning-making and forcing viewers to reconsider the age-old question, 'what is art?'"
