💬 What Others Are Saying…

“Love her work! Jody is one of my favourite artists and humans, and one of the best art teachers and mentors I’ve had. Her students run the full gamut of skills, interests and ambitions, and yet Jody manages to tailor her teaching to make sure that everyone gets what they need to develop not just as artists, but as artists with their own unique voice. And that’s no mean feat. She really has changed my life. Can’t recommend her highly enough. “
