Jody is a pastelist whose work focuses primarily on flowers which she believes are among the most sophisticated expressions of nature’s artistry.

Jody considers herself most fortunate to be only three generations removed from Monet, as a student of Charles Hawthorne’s School of Light and Color which Hawthorne founded specifically to teach the color discoveries he learned from Monet.

Jody enjoys painting in vibrant colors from unique perspectives. Samples of her work can be found on her web site www.PastelsInBloom.com
