TESTIMONIALS 

Here are a few recent comments from students...
Jill has given me confidence that I thought I would never have with watercolors. I’ve learned so much from her about color mixing, letting colors flow and not trying to control what happens. It has made me so aware when I look at landscape or whatever we are painting to see the lightness and darkness and what your eye is drawn to.

[I have really developed] an appreciation of value in painting a subject. I am really enjoying your classes, Jill.  If you plan more on-line classes world wide, sign me up. Your going the extra mile does not go unnoticed. Thank you.

Jill has helped me to develop an eye for detail. She has also trained me in color mixing. I did not have any experience before her classes and now I can produce a well balanced painting. I owe all of my new found abilities to Jill.

I’m very comfortable with the way Jill teaches online or in person. She makes herself available to answer questions and help. I hope she will continue to offer classes online classes because I believe it has helped me to be able to pause and take my time more than in an in person class.

This was my first watercolor class. She was very encouraging and taught me enough in the basics class that I could push myself on my own and and accomplish more. Jill, you, my dear, opened a huge door and filled my heart with so much joy at your workshop last year in North Carolina.

I have just loved your classes, Jill. They have given me so much experience and understanding that I did not have beforehand. You are a great teacher, who explains things well and the pace of the class is well balanced.
