Born in Ashton near Manchester, Janet had always wanted to use her hands to create, but frustratingly the school’s magical woodwork and metal workshops were forbidden territory.

Not until many years later, when she moved to Cornwall, did the opportunities arise to give her suppressed desires their rein. And Cornwall - the idyll of many happy childhood holidays - has proven a sturdy friend and muse.

Creating simple jewellery and photography are woven into her life.

At present Janet exhibits at the weekly Sennen Market and Treen Chapel Studio.
