Susan Jenkins: An Artist’s Journey of Passion and Purpose

Susan Jenkins’ love affair with art began as a young girl, captivated by drawing, painting, and the magic of color. Her creative journey led her to major in Graphic Design at the University of North Florida, blending her passion for art with the evolving world of computer graphics.
Life, however, brought twists and turns, as Susan set aside her fine art aspirations to focus on her family and financial responsibilities. But true passion never fades. Later in life, Susan reignited her artistic spark, diving into the world of online learning to rediscover her craft. Frustrated by the lack of accessible resources for eager learners like herself, she turned that challenge into a mission: to create a space where anyone, anywhere, could explore and grow their artistic abilities. This vision gave birth to Monet Café.
Now, Susan’s YouTube channel, Monet Café, is a global hub of creativity, with over 140,000 subscribers and hundreds of instructional videos on pastel painting and beyond. She considers it a true blessing to share the joy of art with those who may never have had the opportunity to learn, bringing beauty, encouragement, and community to artists around the world.
