My Students

I am excited to bring a exciting art experience to this community. The kids are excited and ready to go. I want to give the the most experiences we can so that they can develop a love of art and find an avenue for their creativity.

Our students are great kids with great possibilities.

Our school dose everything it can for our kids. Our community is a low income community full of hard working families. Our kids are involved in multiple school activities and the school is the center of our community.

My Project

Our students will use the Blick Econo Etch Mode to experience monotype printmaking, linoleum block printmaking, wood block printing, and etching. They will be able to experience all these types of art. This will open up the world of printmaking to them. They will learn how to use materials and equipment to share their experiences through printmaking.

This will help open the world of art to a school and a community that has not had it.

You will be starting a program that will not just touch a school and the kids but an entire community.
