Brittany Foley, a high school senior at Edmond Memorial High School is a CCA Youth Atelier student and will be the first student to be featured in a series of profile stories I'll be writing on the students and instructors at The Conservatory. I am very excited to begin this series and look forward to sharing with you! Brittany has been studying with me for about 3 years. Since she began her studies at the CCA she has studied drawing, color theory, and painting with oils. Brittany has had the opportunity to study portrait painting with Scott Waddell at two of the workshops he taught at CCA and she studied with Alicia Ponzio who taught Sculpting The Portrait last summer. Brittany works hard and diligently at her craft and possesses a natural gift. Her studies are not limited to CCA classes - at Edmond Memorial High School she has been an AP Studio Art student for several years. Below is a sampling of some of Brittany's work. Learn about the Youth Atelier Program here. All the best, Leslie For information on William-Adolfe Bouguereau visit this link: http://www.artrenewal.org/pages/artist.php?artistid=7

I have had the good fortune of working with Brittany since January as her new AP art teacher---I only regret NOT knowing her sooner and being a part of this great school! I have embraced Brittany's skills and abilities and certainly pleased to know there is a valuable resource such as CCA for young students to participate with and learn much of the classical traditions of drawing/painting/sculpture that is not always mainstream in public education (as much as I TRY to bring it to forefront, there is a mass amount of artistic culture to also include!) FOR THE SERIOUS Artist/art student---one must seek aspects of foundation---Brittany's diverse range abilities as an artist have been rooted in a strong foundation of drawing/painting abilities from CCA---it is very clear she will be able to grow even further from her opportunity with CCA!
