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.
