About the artist: Jean Walker is a lifelong resident of Webster, MA. Jean is married to her high school sweetheart and together they have two great children. Jean always wanted to paint and was surprised and excited that a paint studio opened in Webster in 2012. The studio was owned and operated by Cindy Smith, a great artist that has been teaching for many years. With Cindy’s great teaching skill, Jean learned quickly and soon started getting commission work for her paintings. To her surprise and delight, students in the class were buying her paintings! As time went on, she acquired her own painting style, which comes from her love of nature. Jean has also taken lessons from Pierre Theriault, an artist in Charlton MA. With Pierre, Jean took her painting skill to another level, learning many mediums such as oils, pastels, tempera, and oil pastels.
