Jan is a freelance illustrator and designer based in Somerset. Jan's skills lie in digital image manipulation and manipulation of materials. She began her career using traditional collage techniques, with a twist - using cut and paste, combined with various other processes. She now works mainly in Photoshop where the scope for collage methods is vast and exciting. She loves experimenting with textures and effects, and uses both photographic and self-generated material to create her imagery. She has the capacity to create a bizarre, sometimes surreal world of unexpected juxtapositions and perspectives that can surprise, disturb and illuminate. For editorial, advertising, publishing, and the web, it can provide a much-needed element of ambiguity and surprise.
