She teaches and facilitates five distinct classes: a series of one-day, mixed-media art classes; the 12-week The Artist’s Way, based on Julia Cameron’s bestseller; an Introduction to SoulCollage®--an intro to making a deck of collaged images that represent our inner selves; Q&A Intuitive Art: Exploring Art & Image as Oracle & Guide; and a creativity support group for women.  

In the 1990’s Odile formed a one-day art touring company, treating people to the wonders of Southern California’s art. During this time, she began to develop her own artistic style, first exhibiting in 2003. She has participated in exhibitions at the Mission Viejo Library, the Showcase Gallery, Long Beach Arts, Southern California Artist’s Association, Huntington Beach Arts Center, and others. In 2008 she became the only Huntington Beach resident ever selected to participate in the prestigious Laguna Beach Festival of the Arts.  
           
Odile studied art at Orange Coast College, Golden West College, UCLA and with private teachers, experimenting with various techniques to develop her personal contemporary style and passion for working with 2-D mixed-media.  Owned by collectors in the Western United States, the Pacific Northwest, the East Coast and South Africa, her artwork is inspired by the beauty and intricacies of nature’s forms, the multi-layered nature of consciousness, poetry, dreams, and her personal history and symbols--including the rich hues of primitive and ethnic cultures. She lives in Huntington Beach with her husband Michael.
