Janet Kenyon is a multi-award-winning watercolour artist based in Carlisle where she paints full time from her studio. In 1975 she studied for two years at Bolton College of Art & Design. In 1977, she moved away from Bolton to study at Leeds Polytechnic and later gained a BA(Hons) in Graphic Design. It was here she began to experiment in watercolour and has continued to push the boundaries of this exceedingly difficult but exciting medium ever since.
