Jan Blanch was born in Norfolk and has always been an enthusiastic artist. Having been brought up on a farm, she had the perfect opportunity to study flowers, which are her favourite subject. Jan had been painting for many years, alongside running a house and looking after a family, until what began as an interest became a full time occupation due to the constant demand for her work, which has brought her international renown.
For over twenty years her botanical watercolour paintings have graced the walls of houses around the world, while many have been reproduced in the form of greetings cards and stationery, sold internationally under the name of Cottage Flowers. Her art has been exhibited around the country, including the Society of Botanical Artists’ exhibition in London, and she is invited each year to exhibit at the Hampton Court Flower Show. Her works have been sold in Harrods, Fortnum and Masons and Liberty’s of London, as well as WH Smith, and a large order from Boots enabled her to convert a barn to include a large studio in which to work.
