"Jacinta and I were very impressed with Jessica's class, her mannerisms, patience, friendliness, privacy policy and value for money after Jacinta's first class, so I continued to register Jacinta for a few more classes, when she could attend.
Jacinta stated she thoroughly enjoys Jessica's classes, she is learning so many new techniques and ideas. Her dream is to be an artist and we highly recommend Jessica Harris from "The Joy Avenue Studio", as a starting point for any young artists out there, who want to fulfill their dream, like Jacinta".
