Hi, I'm Janice! I love watercolour and paint a wide range of personal and commission work. 

I started painting in watercolours 5 years ago, dabbling a bit in acrylic before that.  I am essentially self-taught, but so thankful for the many generous artists who freely share demos through YouTube.  

The majority of my work is self-initiated. It is inspired by nature, exploring the light, shadows, colours and textures I see all around me.  My faith and my art are very closely connected.  Painting is an expression of worship for me, celebrating and participating in the amazing things that have been created by my loving Heavenly Father.  

I love to learn new things, so while I definitely lean toward a realistic style, preferring natural subjects, I regularly push myself outside of my comfort zone and try new styles and subjects.  

I hope you enjoy browsing my art and following along with this exciting journey I am on!  Follow me on Instagram at watercolour_by_janice_leanne to keep up to date with my latest creations and events!
