COVID19: I want to take all the precautions I can to reduce any risks for myself, students and others that visit my studio so I will require all students to wear a mask while they are in my studio. Students will be socially distanced and using their own supplies. I will be sanitizing tables, chairs, easels and any commonly touched surfaces after each class.

Learn about choosing a subject, composition, values, how to start and when to stop. All of Jess Quinn’s painting classes offer personal, positive, and encouraging guidance and feedback throughout the process.
