ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR
Hi, my name is Jennifer Turnbull. I have been teaching high school art since 2006 and I love helping my students to become better artists. I have a B.F.A. in Drawing and Painting from Cal State Fullerton and a M.A. in Education from the University of La Verne. I also have a teaching credential in Art.
In my free time I enjoy making art. My work has been exhibited in Los Angeles County, Orange County and Ventura County and it has been published in magazines and on album covers. In 2015 I was commissioned by the city of Burbank to paint a mural on one of their electrical boxes.
