ABOUT JANINE
Janine Burrows is a diverse painter and illustrator with over 30 years experience in various creative roles.
Originally from a surface/ pattern textiles background, Janine combined all her skills into freelance designing for greetings, stationary, home wares and children’s apparel until March 2020 when the world turned upside down. In the pursuit of something positive, Janine saw this as an opportunity to realise her ambition of painting full time. The introduction of the Artist Support Pledge gave Janine the focus she needed and a way to support other creatives in similar situations.
Bold and often unusual colour combinations along with expressive mark making are signature to Janine’s style along with texture and delicate, often naive details. Captivated by the wonder of the great outdoors, its quality of peace and joy that Janine reflects in her work.
Now based at the West Yorkshire Print Workshop in Mirfield, a wonderfully diverse creative environment which provides excellent space and light for Janine’s work to develop.
