My Project

My students love to create and express themselves through art. While they love all mediums, these canvas boards and heavy-body acrylic paints will allow them to work with materials that inspire them to take their artwork to the next level.

Thinking critically and creatively through art is incredibly beneficial to a young mind!

Creativity is an essential part of a student's day that sometimes gets overlooked in the busy school day. I would love for my students to have the chance to plan and paint some art pieces that reflect their personal style and special interests.
