My Project

My students love experimenting with a variety of materials to create their artwork. These materials will restock our supplies for my AP Studio, Drawing, Painting and Printmaking classes.

This refresh is badly needed especially for painting and printmaking, giving students watercolor paper for painting, linoleum for block printing, plexi for etching, and access to more presses.

The chemicals and rectifier will allow students more access to electrolytic copper etching so that we will be able to etch more than one work at a time. These materials will help give my students the opportunity to explore their creativity in different ways!
