Jeanette Janson is a mixed media artist who works in collage, assemblage and other forms of altered art. She enjoys working with a variety of materials including paper, vintage photographs & fabrics. Jeanette finds most of the materials she uses at auctions, collectible shows and tag sales. She loves taking some seemingly useless item that has been cast aside and recreating it into something unique and unexpected.

“What I really love is to sit in my studio, surrounded by all of this wonderful stuff and let my imagination run wild. I see the history and energy in these items and love to make them into whimsical, playful pieces that will bring a smile to someone’s face.”

Jeanette’s artwork has been published in several national magazines including Somerset Studio, Violet, & Artitude Zine. In 2003 Jeanette was commissioned by the City of Myrtle Beach to design and paint a carousel horse for the “Carousel Horses on Parade” project. Her work is currently for sale at The Springmaid Art Museum in Myrtle Beach, SC as well as online at “Etsy.”

Jeanette makes her home in the upstate of South Carolina with her husband and 3 furry friends.
