Jeanne is known for her “Wet & Workable” watercolor painting method that she has developed over the years. It frees students from all the “myths” of watercolor so that they can evolve their creative expression. She is most known for her remarkable and colorful portraits but is also sought out for her expressive floral paintings and still lifes.

Workshop students find her very lively, and approachable to learn from. She packs a great deal of information into the workshop, along with demos and guided painting sessions with the students. Jeanne has a long list of testimonials raving about how much the students learn and how her workshop is one of the best they have ever taken.

Wet & Workable Watercolor
Open subject or specified (Portrait, Flowers or Still Life). A live demo of a still life, portrait or flower at the outset. Wet & Workable painting method on saturated paper creates relaxed working time. Learn to manage moisture in your brush, paint & paper for better results. Can be applied to any subject matter... and enables lifting and painting lights back in. Comfortable for those with experience in other media plus a break out for those with traditional watercolor skills.
