About Me

Jan, as she likes to be called, has been a professional artist her entire adult life. She started with drawing in pencil, then ink, then watercolor, clay and now oil and mosaic. For 25 years she did house portraits in ink and for the past 15 years she also does them in watercolor. Jan and her husband Michael moved to New Bern, North Carolina in 1989 from Aspen, Colorado, where they had lived for 6 years.

Road Trip – Wandering the NE Coast

Road Trip – Wandering the NE Coast

This is the third year in a row I’ve visited Maine, great to be out of the heat for a bit. This time rather than take the time to drive up there I flew into Boston and got a car. Just so happens I was on my way to the DeCordova sculpture garden when the […]

Road Trip – Sculpture, Music, and Flowers

Road Trip – Sculpture, Music, and Flowers

I rented the house I grew up in, now an air bnb, on a lake in Southern Michigan for a few days. It’s a perfect spot, and was a fabulous place to grow up. On the way I took a « slight » detour, not exactly on the way but didn’t know when I’d get that way […]

Road Trip – Washington and Oregon Coasts

Road Trip – Washington and Oregon Coasts

My friend Bobbi and I arrived in Seattle early and took off right away to visit with artist Stephanie Burgess. She is the artist behind the Peace and Garden poles that we sold at Carolina Creations. She is delightful! I’m not exagerating when I say we sold many hundreds of her garden art poles. I […]

Road Trips – Traverse City MI, Middleburg VA, Etc.

Road Trips – Traverse City MI, Middleburg VA, Etc.

It’s been a busy month! I’ve been a fan of Michelle Tock-Yorks ceramic sculpture since I discovered her 7 years ago and purchased my first piece. When I heard she was having a workshop in Traverse City I had to go, the only downside was the fact that it was at the end of March. […]

<strong>DAR Art Award</strong>

<strong>DAR Art Award</strong>

I am honored that the local DAR (Daughters of the American Revolution) has presented me with an award for my accomplishments in the field of art. The Women in the Arts Recognition Award, a national DAR award, is given by the American Heritage Committee. The award is designed to recognize and honor worthy women at […]

Road Trip – Another Two Weeks in Paradise

Road Trip – Another Two Weeks in Paradise

There are several places I’ve been through the years that I can’t get out of my system. Castine, ME, Amsterdam, NL, Bruges, BE, and Key West, FL. I was lucky to be in the Keys in the early 80s, a little late to the party, Michael came many times in the 70s, I wish I […]

Little Talk

To end our show at the Arts Council Carol and I did a little talk. In this blog post I’m including some tidbits that I did not share during the talk, like the part about what we did when we lived in Aspen. And I’m only posting my part of the talk! Some of this […]

Last Road Trips of 2022

Last Road Trips of 2022

I thought I was done traveling for the year – not so! A quick trip to Myrtle Beach was followed by a trip to see the North Carolina Chinese Lantern Festival! Then I got a call from a friend asking me if I wanted to go see the Sergeant show at the National Gallery in […]

Interview in New Bern Magazine with Jan Francoeur

Interview in New Bern Magazine with Jan Francoeur

New Bern Magazine By Jonathan Burger, Craven Arts Council & Gallery, Inc. Where are you from and how did you end up in New Bern? I’m originally from Michigan, my husband and I left there in 1982 and spent six years in Aspen, Colorado. From there we traveled in an RV and spent the next […]

Francoeur and Tokarski 30 Years Later

Francoeur and Tokarski 30 Years Later

It’s been a great painting year for me. In the fall of 2021 I agreed to have a show at the Bank of the Arts with Carol Tokarski, former director of the Craven Arts Council. Thirty years ago we had a show together there so this is our 30 year anniversary show. Carol and I […]
