Jan has loved painting all her life, but  did not receive her Fine Art As/A1 plus Tutors Awards until she attended Paston Collage at the age of 53!  Her  hobby, love and passion is to help anyone who wishes to draw or paint, in any style they wish to achieve! Quote from  Clive Bell 20th century art critic. ‘We have no other means of recognising Art than our feeling for it.
