    I really enjoyed Arlene's class. She taught us the different techniques of color pencil drawing, of which I did not know. There were so many things we did and tried that really opened my mind to the way I approach art in viewing it and in making it. I like Arlene's way of getting us to do the work our selves and each week we had a homework assignment that kept us active in doing art in between classes. I plan on signing up again and furthering my experience with colored pencils. Thank you Arlene.
