Janet TRELOAR
Janet Treloar was born in Helston, West Cornwall and spent a year at Penzance School of Art before studying at Somerville College, Oxford, where she gained an MA. After many years spent in various locations abroad, where she both continued her art studies and exhibited, she returned to the UK in the 1980s.
She is currently Senior Vice-President of the Royal Watercolour Society, and divides her time between Cornwall and London. Her daughter is the painter Alice MUMFORD. Her works were included in the first exhibition of the RWS to be held in Cornwall, which took place at the Royal Cornwall Museum at the end of 2010.
