Jan Reagan Art

Celebrating imperfection and authenticity through art

I envision a world where art reminds us it’s okay to be imperfect, bold, and unapologetically ourselves — where authenticity connects us all.

Jan’s Story:

Jan Reagan creates art that celebrates imperfection and authenticity. Her mixed-media work invites viewers to slow down, notice beauty in unexpected places, and embrace what makes them unique. Inspired by nature’s poetry and texture, she blends collage, paint, and handmade papers to tell personal and universal stories. Through her art, Jan hopes to remind others — it’s okay to be imperfect, bold, and unapologetically yourself. This message is essential to her as she has raised a neurodivergent son who is now in his early twenties and is fully embracing his uniqueness.

Artist Note: Ikebana Series

This summer, I took a class on Ikebana—the Japanese art of flower arranging that has transcended generations. I learned something surprisingly profound: beauty can come from the simplest foliage in my own backyard.

Inspired by that class, I created a three-piece series called Ikebana, guided by balance, simplicity, and natural harmony principles. It was a challenge for me to pare things down—I'm naturally drawn to texture and color—but I discovered the quiet power of simplicity through this process.

Each piece reflects that lesson: a dialogue between restraint and richness, between what’s added and what’s left unsaid. I hope you enjoy this series as much as I enjoyed learning from it.
