My Project

This project is asking for anatomically correct skeletons and skulls to help my students further their passion for figure drawing. These will help my students express the creative visions living inside their heads and help them come to life, as well as to help students organize their thoughts and ideas as they problem solve through our course and the world around them.

Each day our students get out of bed and come to school to learn, be with friends, and build relationships and skills.

My students have a passion for drawing people - and have even entered their drawings in the 2022 Congressional Art Competition. I would love to give them access to resources to build their portfolios and confidence.

Many of my students were directly impacted emotionally, physically, and financially by the pandemic. I want to ensure that regardless of their circumstances, they all are provided equal opportunities to learn and succeed within my classroom.
