Jan Cregan is a painter. She has loved creating art since kindergarten and has, through the years, experimented with various mediums, delighting in 

watercolor, oils, colored pencil, pastels, and acrylics. She grew to love painting living things most of all, whether human or four-legged, and her approach, which leans toward a realistic, gentle style, shines in her tender images of children. She believes that being artistic is a gift, and is ever grateful for the joy and contentment creating art gives her.
