What Students Are Saying
“Getting good flower prints in the traditional manner is almost impossible. Jane's teaching methods are some of the best online courses available. It has been a while since I did Jane's course, but I keep returning to it as the foliage and flowers change with the seasons.”
— Carol F.
“Loved taking your class, carefully researched, simply presented, loads of content for embellishing. It was well worth the price. I have had a learning curve with this process which was unexpected, I usually pick up stuff quickly but this was on a whole different level for me.”
— Shawn D.
“Jane is fabulous at everything she does... and teaches. I'm addicted.”
— Holly T.
