My Project

I am looking for support with providing supplies to my art students. I have put together a list of supplies that includes paint, brushes, canvas boards, pencils, and erasers. With these items, I will support my students in developing their artistic skills. In addition to developing my students' artistic skills, I also want to teach them about how to sell their art. Near the end of the quarter, we will host an art sale at the school where each student will have at least one piece submitted. As a class, we will discuss the cost of art vs the time and care spent to create it. We will also explore and compare art of various price ranges.

These middle school children are so creative and I would love to provide them with more mediums to express themselves.

These students attend a project based middle school with a focus on aeronautics. They are clever problem solvers with creative solutions to everyday problems. They are a diverse group of students with so many great personalities. I am hoping to learn more from them through their art.
