She originally trained as a fine artist and has returned to making that the main focus of her business. During 2011 she completed a Diploma of Management course and a Certificate IV in Training and Assessment which qualifies her to pass on her considerable graphic and fine art skills to interested students.

Janice has completed a Diploma of Visual Art at Chisholm with high distinctions and will complete an Advanced Diploma of Creative Product Development in 2014. She was awarded the Oakhill award for excellence at the end of her diploma.
Janice does commissions covering a variety of subjects including beloved canine pets as well as cats and of course horses and is now successfully selling works to clients in the UK and interstate.
During the 2010-2011 Year A variety of artworks have been produced using most mediums. They were mostly produced to submission to the monthly demonstrations at art guilds to the South East of Melbourne.
Several have won awards. Some are for sale.
