She certainly enjoyed teaching art to young children and has always been amazed at how children can teach her! Janet graduated Magna cum laude from Old Dominion University.
Janet’s own artistic work is tapestry weaving, balanced between the 60” Macomber and 30” Leclerc looms. Her favorite weaving is Theo Moorman’s tapestry technique. Janet lives in Gloucester Courthouse with her husband, Jim, and two crazy cats.
