About the artist…

" Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time"  --- Thomas Merton

Jan Yoshioka is a self-taught Quilling artist from Levittown, NY. The discovery of Quilling in a craft magazine at age 10 completely hooked her on this beautiful and unique art form.  These techniques appeal to people of all ages and is amazingly versatile. In 2004, Jan's work was featured in Legacy magazine (Click Here to read the article), highlighting how Quilling can be used to enhance antique photographs to create family heirlooms.   In November, 2011, Jan was featured on the local TV station demonstrating the basic techniques.  Now retired from the corporate world and living in Florida, Jan is devoting her time to teaching and creating custom designs, and is a member of the North American Quilling Guild.
