Originally from Liverpool, England, Jan relocated to Avon, Ohio, several years ago along with her husband, Clive and daughter, Caroline. Jan trained and worked as a nurse in various hospitals in England. While there she cultivated her interest in art and design, decorating childrens' hospital wards, schools, nurseries and bedrooms in her spare time. After leaving nursing to start a family she trained professionally at Warwick School of Art and enjoyed considerable success as a commission artist, face painter and creator of hand painted, themed room murals. Winner of a national UK award for original face painting design, she now brings these talents to Northeast Ohio and the Cleveland area.
