My name: is Janna Werner, actually I got 3 forenames... Janna Berit Neele :)
About me: I am a 34 year old full time artist from Oldenburg, Germany.
I live in a house with a small garden and a pond, together with my Danish husband Jesper, our dog Sindri, two rabbits and a few “foster”goldfish. I spend a lot of time in my studio which is in the first floor of our house. Here is where I craft, paint, take photos and work on the computer.
My love for papercrafts and mixed media art evolved in 2010 when a friend introduced me to scrapbooking. Since then I have been working together with well-known papercrafting companies, magazines and artists. Furthermore I am teaching scrapbooking and mixed media online classes as well as in-person workshops.
About my family: Jesper and I are married for nearly 3 years now. In the beginning we had a long-distance relationship, as he lived in Denmark and I lived in Germany. Gladly he was able to move to Germany quite fast. We haven´t been seperated for more than 7 days in a row since then. We do not have any kids yet, but a sweet dog named Sindri who is probably one of the most spoiled dogs ever.
About my style: Believe it or not, the style question is always the hardest one for me... I do not like to limit or categorize myself by giving my style a certain name... I like to be influenced by many styles and designs.. but if I had to name it, I´d go for a modern-experimental-eclectic-clean-freestyle-style ;)
My top 5 papercrafting essentials: This changes from time to time, so right now it would be
- sewing machine
- white cardstock
- black Faber-Castell Pitt Pen size S
- wood veneers
- patterned paper
... may I sneak in a 6th one? Would be masking tape :)
On any given day you might find me... Sitting in the kitchen - reading, browsing instagram, watching tv series (I just started the first season of Fringe..), playing with the dog and – of course – scrapbooking.
