Jan Riley

I am an Edinburgh based artist painting and selling my work on a part-time basis. I have been painting for a few years now and only really started selling my work in March 2004.

I have attended various courses at the Edinburgh College of Art - Dept of Continuing Studies, having originally graduated from The Scottish College of Textiles in Galashiels, where I studied a 4 year marketing and design course in clothing and fashion.

All my paintings are original works painted in top quality acrylic paint on high grade stretched canvas. Each canvas is finished ready to hang unframed, as I carefully paint round the edge of the canvas in a continuation of the composition.

Up to September 2005 I have had 3 solo exhibitions and also exhibited my work in the Strathearn Gallery, Crieff and the Panton Gallery, Dunfermline. The Howies Restaurant, Waterloo Pl, Edinburgh is an on going exhibition space for me and is where most of my current work can be viewed. I also have my own website that can be viewed at www.janrileyart.com.
