Jani Tully Chaplin
Born in Devon, Jani developed a love of painting and drawing from the age of five; she later studied Art and History of Art in England and abroad. Jani and her husband Jeremy now divide their time between Devon and the Cotswolds.
Working in watercolour and gouache provides a perfect medium for her delicate and finely detailed style; her subjects reflect facets of her experience, her infectious personality and quirky sense of humour, which combine easily with her skills as a meticulous observer of nature and interest in disappearing traditional rural customs and gentler ways of life. Jani is an established designer with a large selection of nature and wildlife illustrations to her credit; many of these have been licensed and commissioned both at home in the UK and worldwide to great acclaim.
Jani wrote and illustrated a series of children’s books. Three books, 12, 1 & 3 were originally released by Mark Hendriksen Publishing. To date, Jani has not published any of the series, nor the remaining books herself, but intends to publish them at some time in the near future.
