“Miss Alayne has the unique combination of creativity and teaching talent that has helped my daughters create an appreciation and enjoyment for art with the extra benefit of having beautiful artwork throughout our home.”
Laura M. - Kildeer, Illinois.
"Miss Alayne is a great art teacher. She teaches step-by-step so we don't get confused. As you get better she lets you have more freedom to make what you want. Over time I've become more independent and a better artist. Another great part of her classes is the engaging conversations. She doesn't write us off as not being intelligent because we are kids, she actually talks to us about art and other stuff going on in the world. Miss Alayne is the best art teacher I've ever had and would recommend her to anyone looking for art instruction."

"Miss Alayne is the reason my son loves art. He has made so many spectacular pieces and always comes home talking about the engaging conversations in her classes. She doesn't just teach art, she is teaching kids how to communicate and connect with each other and the world. This is a place he feels he fits in and can thrive. He has been with her for four years and even produced enough quality work to mount an exhibition. She is absolutely brilliant!"

"Both (my niece and nephew) are SO EXCITED, they LOVED seeing you and are absolutely thrilled to have you as their teacher. A young man of few words and fewer superlatives, he texted me yesterday that your class was great and he really really enjoyed it. My niece just called and spoke for 20 minutes non-stop about how wonderful you are, that you are the best teacher she's ever had for anything including any college professor. They can't wait for next week. Thank you, you are the best!"
