All students have an innate desire to express themselves. As they express themselves, they learn a new sense of identity. A good set of paints and a piece of canvas will provide students the tabula rasa (blank slate), on which they will set forth intentions about the person they are and they wish to become. Scholars will paint a self-portrait that will be technical and expressive, using both the left and right sides of their brain. They will choose colors that are meaningful to them and have a sense of self discovery that enables them to find a full expression of who they are. It is through this self expression that they can show up with confidence in their lives. Finally, these above average materials will show them that they need to care for what it is they create-- a true life skill of maturity and responsibility.
