Happy Clients

what students & clients have to say

  • We booked Audrey’s class for a relaxing team-bonding event. The team thoroughly enjoyed the workshop, and Audrey was incredibly helpful & accommodating throughout the booking process. Would recommend to anyone

  • Audrey approaches watercolor with meditative practices in her workshop. Her instruction to basic watercoloring techniques and breathing exercises was not only educational but also helped us dial back and relax. She was also able to adapt to the situation and give us a great experience despite last minute tech issues. Above all, she was kind, gentle, and reminded us all to breathe. Thank you Audrey!

    Angela H.

  • Audrey provided a perfect experience for our bookclub! We all truly felt relaxed and inspired. I can’t say enough about what a great job she did!

    Connie O.

  • Audrey was professional and super helpful in helping us plan and coordinate the event. In the class, she was articulate, knowledgeable, and worked the room well so that everyone felt included and had a good time. Folks in the call gave feedback that it was a really nice way to break up their day– a lot of her points resonated with the crowd.

    Peter D.

  • I invited Audrey to host the Learn Watercolor for Mindfulness for our virtual team event! It was such a fun and creative experience, and I loved learning new techniques from Audrey. The atmosphere was lively and everyone in our team all had a pleasant afternoon.

    James L.

  • What a lovely team bonding this was. [Audrey] was very knowledgeable, thoughtful, and friendly and led a thorough self-reflective intro to watercolor. I almost feel like I can actually create something not terrible with watercolors now. Highly recommend this and her other classes.

    Ann W.

  • Audrey did an amazing job setting the stage with a breathing and mindfulness exercise before starting the watercolor class. Our group had a great time, came out feeling relaxed and we now feel better equipped to take the skills we’ve learned to continue practicing mindfulness and doing watercolor on our own! Would highly recommend this class!

Owner and Creative

Hi there~ I’m Audrey, and I’m a teaching artist in the Chicagoland area. My creative journey started in 2016 when I went through some hard times in my life. I began bullet journaling and that led me down the paths of calligraphy and watercolor. I am so grateful for my journey, and I hope to share with you the healing and transformative power of art. I’m also a plant enthusiast, a fur baby mama to two cats (Aslan & Rocket) and a dog (Charcoal), and married to a loving and supportive husband.
