Jane Betteridge is an artist and tutor whose interest in painting stems from childhood. Building on this love of painting at local watercolour classes, she gained A-level and City and Guilds certificates in art before taking up teaching. Jane was delighted to be invited to be an Artist in Residence at the BBC's Gardener's World live, an experience that encouraged her to write her own book. Known for her experimental, innovative approach to watercolours, Jane's adventurous, fun style allows you to take advantage of the medium to produce free, lively works of art. Jane lives in Ashby-de-la-Zouch, Leicestershire.
