Janet Ledger was born in Northampton in 1934 and studied painting at the Northampton School of Art.

Janet art work has been compared favourably with the paintings of L S Lowry. Like Lowry, who Janet met, she creates misty industrial landscapes and paintings of people. Her paintings and limited edition prints have a marvelous feeling for atmosphere and colour combined with a strong sense of observation of life. Few subjects escape Janet's gaze, whether it be on holiday or at work, children at play or at school, the washing on the line, a city skyline at night, or the corner shops and back streets populated by buses, dogs, lamp posts. Often humour and pathos in her paintings and prints evokes another dimension, often providing the viewer a momentary smile.

Today Janet Ledger paintings have great appeal. Her art work and can be found in many public and private art collections, these include those of late HRH Princess Margaret, The Coal Board, Marks and Spencer, MacDonalds, Mowlem and National Westminster Bank. Several pop musicians have bought Janet Ledger paintings and the Tate Gallery own two Janet Ledger prints. One of these prints was reproduced as a greetings card by Camden Graphics.

In 1985 Janet Ledger was made an honorary citizen of Dallas after a successful exhibition titled "Best of Britain". Janet's ability to capture the atmosphere and colour of a scene has made her work highly collectable.

In addition to showing at Red Rag Gallery Janet Ledger's paintings and limited edition prints have been exhibited at many British Art Galleries including in 'London '77' at Somerset House which was a celebration for the Queen's Silver Jubilee. Her art works have also exhibited widely outside of the UK. Each limited edition print from Red Rag has been reviewed and signed by Janet Ledger and like all Red Rag British art and Contemporary art can be shipped worldwide.
