Hello. I’m Janus, an artist, leather artisan and crafter based in Auckland, New Zealand.

I have been drawing and painting since I was a child, I’ve tried all sorts of mediums, but my favourite is watercolours, specialising in pet portraits.

I love a realistic approach and to really capture the spirit of each furbaby through painting their eyes. It always warms my heart when I know my work has made someone smile and cry the tears of joy.

Leather craft is also something I picked up a few years back, I have really invested into this field of art, which I found is not as popular in NZ as the rest of the world.

In addition I also enjoy crocheting, cross stitching, lino cutting, hand sewing, card making and the list goes on :)

Apart from my passion in art and crafts I’m also a Crazy Cat Lady with a sweet ginger girl, Mika
