Born in Massachusetts and into a talented family of artists,
Jodi Callahan realized at a very young age that she too had the heart of an artist.
Viewing the world through an artist's eye, she would sketch whenever and wherever she could.
Jodi began to study the work and techniques of the great artists of the past.
Her love of art grew stronger as she studied the dramatic subject matter depicted in
the works of the Great Masters and the distinct application of paint and play on light
uniquely expressed by the Impressionist painters. Jodi was intrigued.
As a senior art major, Jodi graduated from Winchester High School in 1982.
She went on to study advertising and graphic design at Boston’s
New England School of Art and Design, graduating in 1985. In 1996 after working as a
graphic designer for eleven years Jodi decided it was time to leave the field to raise her family.
In February of 2003 when her children were just six and four,
Jodi was diagnosed with an invasive form of breast cancer.
After having endured the effects of chemotherapy and multiple surgeries,
Jodi is happy to say she is now cancer free and can proudly call her self a survivor.
