Michelle Stringer, President of Sarnia Arts and Crafts Club
I attended the two day workshop and was impressed with Jenny’s enthusiasm and the individual attention she gave to each person. She shared her skills at colour mixing and achieving light and depth in a painting in a way that everyone could understand and follow. When chatting one-to-one, she was very encouraging and careful to allow each person’s individual styles to come through.
For me personally, Jenny’s enthusiasm, encouragement and obvious love for painting gave me inspiration and a renewed passion for painting.

A cracking workshop yesterday where students learnt to capture light in seascapes with acrylics – with some rather impressive results and lots of positive feedback!

Julie Nixon, Secretary for the Chesterfield Art Club
I have known Jenny for quite a time and she has visited the Club many times to give her wonderful demonstrations and also workshops. Jenny has a very bubbly and friendly character and gives the members a constant account of what she is doing with plenty of good instruction, advice and inspiration. She is good fun also and the members always look forward to her visits. Jenny’s own unique style of painting is much admired as she capture light and tone beautifully. She certainly inspires me to do better!
