This review really exhibits why I teach art...just to help others to understand that art is to be enjoyed and not to be perfection. It's an ongoing learning process...that's creativity! Proud of you Jade!

"Wow, this portrait is stunning! I'm not an artist myself but watching this was fascinating. I feel she really was able to capture the personality in her art. And also, there's plenty of really good profound and comprehensive information, from beginning to end. Definitely, recommend this class :)" Emerelle's V.

"I've taken workshops and read books on color theory but never felt like I learned anything more than where the colors are on the color wheel. I now have a much better understanding of it." Brenda R.

"I really enjoyed this class. I was glued to the screen the whole way through and fascinated by the combination of techniques and the versatility of using charcoal and an eraser to add and subtract value, and the use of fingers to smooth edges and create gradients. I was particularly interested in how Jennifer used the photo as a reference for depth, light and dark, detail, angles and proportion. I’m bookmarking this class and will return to it on a number of occasions." Chris H.

It's me...riding my horse Tanner

I grew up in Michigan and lived in Texas, Indiana, Colorado and now I live in Kentucky. In December 2016, I retired from teaching college for 34 years. My husband and I took a big leap and moved to a horse ranch in Kentucky and are enjoying relaxing farm life.

For me, it has been difficult to retire completely and stop teaching altogether. I still have the longing and desire to share my art knowledge and skills with others. It's such a pleasure to see a student's creative skills flourish and open up into the world of art. I love teaching!

I have a diverse background and fine art skills to show you how to release your true creativeness and your own style! Anyone can learn the skills needed to make magnificent art! There is really is no such thing as having to have 'talent' to create art because it's a learned skill. Everyone is a creative person! 00d95668
