Jacqueline DeGavia's tranquil watercolors & oil landscapes reflect her childhood in the Canadian North Woods. A working artist for most of her adult life, she finds special joy in watercolor & oil landscapes, especially of the Pacific Northwest. She holds a Master's degree in Adult Education and taught for many years with special needs students. To encourage others to "Echo Their Magic," she wrote a booklet called "Creating Simply: Create a Painting in Three Easy Steps." It is available for purchase along with her paintings and note cards.
