MA Fine Art, BA (Hons) Fine Art
Janet started sketching at an early age, influenced by her parents who painted in their spare time. She then continued her training in Fine Art at Staffordshire University, and Central Saint Martins School of Art, London.
She became a full time painter in 2004 producing work that hovers between abstraction and representation. She uses her photography to capture memories of places she has visited, which inspire her work. Her response is deeply personal and emotional.
Janet's work explores the places she has experienced throughout her life, seen through the eyes of an artist with an understanding of the land and a sense of place within it.
Janet's working method is challenging, resulting in paintings that are both exciting and fluent.
"In all my work the aim is to convey my feelings and sense of awareness in that particular environment".
