Online Mentorship Overview
Jennifer seeks for an emotional response in a representational landscape painting rather than perfection. She looks for patterns of light, a focal point, subtle temperature changes, and a reason to paint it in the first place.
This is mentorship: Jennifer will provide teaching from her own experiences, feedback through email and group discussions, and practice through your own homework which is given at the end of each session. The course will be built on what you wish to achieve.
About the Instructor
Meet Jennifer Caie, who loves the Canadian wilderness and time spent on the trail or on the water, through her work. Drawing inspiration from nature, Jennifer's constant struggle is to make the paint describe the magic witnessed. She discovers ways to manipulate the acrylic media to do what you want it to.
Jennifer Caie has been an artist most of her life. An award winner for her landscapes, she is an elected member of the Society of Canadian Artists (SCA), and an associate member of the Federation of Canadian Artists (AFCA). Jennifer teaches painting classes in her home studio and abroad when approached.
"I have much experience playing in acrylic paint, developing my own style.Tell me what you'd like to accomplish, or where you struggle- I am certain that I've been there before! As a full time artist, mom, grandmother, outdoor enthusiast, and social butterfly, the words- finding balance- have become my own."

At the Dryden Arena
The Dryden Handmade Market is the largest arts and crafts show for Dryden for the year! It brings in over 2000 shoppers, and over 70 vendors!
I have been busy with the social media and making posters for this year’s market. It’s been a busy summer but all worth it in the end. SO many of you will be rewarded with either the selling or purchasing of items truly unique and hand made.
Volunteering for this event does take a lot of energy and time. But new volunteers and organizers are needed each and every year to keep up this level of greatness! Please offer your own talents towards this wonderful market.
This is a completely volunteer based show. All monies collected for booths, is divided by the cost for next year’s show, and a donation for the Dryden Regional Health Centre.
Another great community project through this event is the donations to the Dryden Food Bank. Last year saw a huge rise in donations. Community spirit is alive! Many thanks and a heartfelt gratitude to all who gave.

- I was a vendor and I loved this market! So much room for everyone that the line ups were super manageable and people could move about easily.
- Can’t wait to see what will be available this year! There’s always some cool item that makes our Christmas stocking stuffers interesting and surprising.
