jan_hodgsonAbout Jan Hodgson

Jan Hodgson lives on the Sunshine Coast. The casual lifestyle of living by the beach inspires her artistic creativity. She never tires of admiring the beauty of natureʼs gifts. She enjoys the challenge of bringing this beauty to others in her colourful florals and still life paintings.

She also loves to capture that quirky look or docile expression in her most striking animal paintings. Her attention to detail and her eye for colour help her to execute her work with an almost photographic finish.

It is also the bold and bright nature of Janʼs paintings that make them so popular. They cater to both the domestic and corporate market. Jan paints exclusively in pastel. Pastels are a very permanent medium and all paintings are accomplished with only top quality archival artists materials and papers.
