My Students

"A picture is worth 1,000 words." My students deserve to express themselves in their artworks. They live in a low-income neighborhood. They do not have enough money to pay for resources like art supplies.

I have students who will be applying for the AP Studio art drawing course, which is a college level course taught in high school.

These students need to have the proper material in order to create high quality artwork. They attend an art school that does not have enough funds for art supplies. These students are extremely talented and creative. They will not be able to pass the AP course without the necessary supplies.

My Project

The students are working on a self-portrait art project. They will need to draw themselves in a unique way that portrays their personality. We will be looking at other famous artist who have created self-portraits, such as Van Gogh, Rembrandt, Da Vinci, and more. They will need to use soft pastels in order to create their artworks. Majority of the students can not afford to pay for soft pastels. In addition, they will need paper for the project as well.

These donations will make a huge difference in these students lives.

Students will learn how to use soft pastels. They will be able to get college credit by passing the AP Studio Art Drawing portfolio. These students can also use their artworks in portfolios for future jobs.
