Leaping Dog Art Studios' founder, Jennifer Szeto, is more than just a lifelong artist. While watching her daughters discover the magic of creativity, Jen realized she had a passion to not only create but nurture the artistic impulse and its associated skills. So, she put together an array of classes that focused both on creative play and technique. Today, Jen teaches everything from drawing and painting basics to recycled art and sculpture, helping youngsters discover the fun of art for the first time and even providing private art lessons and portfolio consultations for young artists looking to gain entry to college programs.
