KALEID Gallery is proud to present:

“Debut” an exhibition featuring the Art Students of Jennifer DeChenne

This is a collection of pieces created by young and budding Artists. Even though they’re different ages and levels of experience, they share a curiosity for Art, and the gumption to experiment and take risks.

Each Artists’ individual collection of pieces is a small window into their personalities and artistic journey. Hopefully, you’ll not just see them developing their technical skill, but you’ll see them developing their individual point of view.

I truly admire my students’ stick-to-itiveness and pure creative spirit. This is something all of us can access readily when we‘re young, but it can get buried with passing time. I like to think we all still have access to this creative spirit, and I hope nurturing this from a young age will help them broadly in their lives, beyond their artistic pursuits. ~Jennifer DeChenne

Jennifer DeChenne is an Artist living in Pleasanton, California. Jennifer has been teaching Art for 15 years in various settings, all across the Bay Area. The students in this exhibition work with Jennifer one on one, for about one to two hours each week. Her approach to teaching varies with each student, as everyone has very different experience levels and goals. Jennifer believes Art is about the Artist’s intention and message, and helps students develop their technical skills to be able to communicate their messages clearly.
