Welcome to By Jove Creative!
I’m Chantelle
I have been a professional artist since 2017 and I look forward to sharing my many skills with students of By Jove Creative.
Through this business you can be supported with our inclusive creative services! We offer a range of art programs for all ages, at all skill levels.
At BJC’s little school of art you can shop art, learn art and feel the process of art.
I’m a down to earth girl with a lot of passion and a paintbrush (despite my childhood dreams of becoming a popstar).
I fell in love with the magic of creating and discovered how to use the creative process as an opportunity for experimentation, exploration, and discovery, moving beyond limits, finding inner resources, and realising my true potential for change and growth.
During a long and messy affair with art, I felt called to support people and enhance their quality of life, BJC started on canvas, dabbled in ceramics and homewares, jewellery making, writing poetry and expanded into therapeutic and fun art practices.
During the pandemic I started studying Art Therapy and became passionate about helping others achieve their goals, build relationships and explored the therapeutic side of Art!
I draw inspiration from many places, especially during meditation, by observing nature, through my experiences and vivid dreams.
I am trained in Art Therapy and the Creative Arts.
My work has constantly evolved with time and experience. I love to deliver incredible and unique art pieces from the heart and teach others how to lead with their heart also.
Perhaps like yours, my journey has been challenging, I started my life over and transformed through the healing of art and creation.
I am so excited to share this journey with you.
All of the colours 🌈,
By Jove,
