Quality art materials take students' ideas to a fresh, professional realm. When students create artwork with good art making supplies, they take the task more seriously and feel like "real artists". The materials requested will be used to teach students new skills, as well as teaching them how to use and maintain, as well as explore techniques and art-making possibilities. I've seen students become surprised and develop confidence when they master a difficult technique, or art-making tool. Students will get real, authentic experience in various drawing techniques (in both ink and ink wash, and watercolor painting), as well as learn the terminology of the tools and techniques. This knowledge and understanding helps students to take ownership of their work because they can use the terminology of the discipline. This art making unit will produce vibrant, rich illustrations, which many will submit to art competitions and student art exhibitions.
