Something happens to the way you see everything around you after Audrey's instruction.You can't watch TV or look outside without imagining how you would draw what you're seeing or what colors you would use.

It's amazing to me how Audrey has helped boost not only my abilities, but my confidence to draw and to try other media such as colored pencil and painting."

"I took art classes all through high school and have taken other painting classes over the years. I had never attempted portraits, but they were of interest to me. Then I saw Audrey's flyer, and I have been taking class for 2 ½ years and have really enjoyed it. I have learned A LOT!"
- Patsy Kjar

"I was born in South Africa, and moved to the States five years ago. I took art as a subject in school, but did not pursue it afterwards. I had my doubts about my ability, especially after so many years, but with the proper guidance, I not only surprised myself, but my tutor as well. I love to study faces, and my ultimate goal is to capture a person or pet's soul reflected through their eyes."

- Irene Logston

"With Audrey's unique method of instruction, her insight and encouragement, I am now doing the kind of portrait work I have always wanted to do."

- Gloria LeClere

"I've been trying to draw for the past 10 to 15 years on my own, with fairly crude results. I took Audrey Bottrell's class in the fall of 2004 and was able to drastically improve my drawing skills. I would recommend Audrey's class to anyone who wanted to learn how to draw realistically. She is an excellent teacher!"
- Brenda Stevens-Ricci

"I found Audrey in November 2005. With her expertise and her methods of teaching, I feel
like I am able to understand the concept of two-dimensional art better now, and am enjoying it tremendously!"
