A Brilliant Light in the Center of My Classroom
Picture
Jon & Erin Soper, Center
It is with Great Sadness that I share the news of the passing of one of my precious Students. 
Finding this image and the placement of all those loving souls surrounding Erin Soper brings tears to my soul.

She was a Teacher, Mother, Wife, Daughter and Artist who brought the kind of light to the darkest places in a room
and filled our hearts with laughter and joy.

It is rare in our life we know from the moment we meet someone  that we are safe and honored.

Erin was that someone and each time she came to my gallery she added a star to my night sky.
​
May we all live our lives be in turn and tune with the Universe she Orbited.
With all my HeART

I gave the class paper with paint splattered (Image 1) on it in all different size papers and color palette. They matched up a image with the paper and created wonderful enchanting landscapes.
Graded Wash & Palette Knife Class
Today the class did 2 small sketches and then picked the one they liked the best and did it larger using graded washes and palette knife. We had 3 new students and they did a lovely job of this not so easy exercise.​

Students Say

In just a few classes, I've learned enough to dabble a bit more myself at my own pace. Your classes have been great motivation for me not to be afraid to experiment. I also appreciate the way you keep your website updated and how you also showcase student work too. It shows what a great teacher you are!
Thanks, Carolyn

​Just would like you know that I enjoyed the class very much today. Lovely ladies and a great teacher! I am amazed as to how my picture turned out after your final strokes. You are an inspiration! Thank you so much for your guidance. Warm regards, Helga🎨💕

I would like to comment on the art classes I have begun with Jessel in Napa. As a disabled person, having lost the use of my left hand, and with zero art experience, I was amazed at what I was able to create in a single lesson. Jessel is a patient, talented artist who shares her techniques with people like me who know nothing. By the end of one class, I had an interesting, colorful piece of art that was actually good enough to frame or display. And the second class was a different technique with a completely different result. Very happy to be learning a creative activity to pursue. She is the best teacher!! ❤️❤️ Kathy R

Wanted to tell you a big thank you for yesterday afternoon. I loved learning more of the “Jessel Method” and it was my first time inside a place in months. I love the Jessel Method and plan to play with it often. I use Saral transfer paper for my mandala templates. I am going to try it for tracing images as it comes in several colors either as sheets or a roll if you want to see if it can work as well for you as the carbon paper. Thank you for a lovely experience and I am delighted to expand upon what I learned from you yesterday; as it was also my first time adding an image in that way to an abstract painting. Have a wonderful day!
Peace and Joy, Joie
Peace is Joy at rest; Joy is Peace dancing!

"Thank you, thank you... it was a great class, Jessel. It's been almost two years since I started the class. The whole experience has been so good for me. You may not remember how and why I got started in my "art class journey" . I came in to the studio to give you those dress shoes I didn't wear to a fundraiser - and thought I'd never wear heels of any kind again - after my bike accident. I picked up one of your brochures and told you that the Kaiser Rehab suggested that doing new things in a new environment with new people would be a good step in recovery for me. I was all in of course and felt that a big plus was that Jessel Gallery was not a completely new thing for me. And the "rest is history" as they say." - Sally K.
