My Project

I LOVE introducing my students to new mediums in art class and one of these mediums is oil pastels and according to the class, only a few have ever worked with this material.

Working with oil pastels is a fantastic way to show my art students not only a new medium but emphasis on some art elements and techniques such as blending, texture and sgraffito.

Most of my students especially my beginners have not taken art since elementary or have never taken any art classes. I want to make this room a place they can experiment and really use their imagination and creativity.

Please help me and my student achieve this by supporting us in getting these materials. We deeply appreciate your help.

Ms. Smith will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by May 12.
