What have past students of Jennifer said about her workshops?

  • Jennifer, your workshop gave me much inspiration and am endeavoring to paint a little every day now” Liz 
  • I have thoroughly enjoyed your classes, they have been one of the highlights of my week. You are an inspiring and supportive teacher, and your classes are lots of fun and as well as informative. Michele
  • “Today was both a treat and a real privilege! Thank you for your time and expertise… I learnt a great deal. The pace was perfect, and I loved the sensory extension…”
  • “Jennifer was awesome, took us through step by step, especially about the observation aspect and construction of the subject, would go to her classes again.”
  • “This class will change how I approach drawing, for the better”
  • I discovered that I really enjoyed the act of focused observation… I know that attempting to draw something will make me much better acquainted with my subject’s characteristics. The guide was excellent, and I will use that going forward – especially useful for me when trying to articulate what makes a plant different from a somewhat similar variety.
  • “I liked the way (Jennifer) got people involved and went around encouraging people”
