My Project

Miniature Oils of the Ocean

Studies of Ocean Awareness and Global Warming

Drawing and Painting Classes

Overland HS is in Aurora, CO. The state of CO is land locked so refreshing to paint ocean scenes. Many of the students have not had a chance to see the mountains in our own state.

Oil paint is available for AP students but not for the under classroom. This project will allow the Drawing and Painting 2 and 3 courses work with Oil paint on a small canvas.

Funds are rarely are available for oil paint in the art classroom. What an opportunity!
