Color Me Happy!

My students need 15 sets of Prismacolor Colored Pencils and 7 sets of Canson Mi Teintes paper to create masterpieces.

My Students

Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, and Violet - ahhhh... the colors of the rainbow. I want my students to have the opportunity to create their own rainbows.

I teach art to about 150 ninth through twelfth grade students at a very small rural high school in South Carolina.

Our supply budget matches our school size - small. I desperately want my students to experience using artist-quality colored pencils like Prismacolors so that they can see what a difference they make in their artwork. I think that using better materials gives students the feeling that their artwork is more important. They are all talented in one way or another and I know that using these materials will really make their work shine.

My Project

I plan on using these materials in many different lessons with my students. One of them being a still life they complete on a colored background paper like the canson mi-tentes paper I am asking for. The still life they draw will be made of objects that will best utilize the colored pencils - bones, cloth, feathers, shells, wood, plant material, flowers, etc. Students will learn to use a viewfinder and draw the still life accurately. We will do many color practice exercises and learn several blending techniques so that they can fully utilize what you give to them.

Imagine the artwork now.

Dramatic pieces in bright vibrant colors set against dark backgrounds basked in beautiful lighting. The students will be so excited to see what they are capable of. Please consider donating these items to my students. They deserve the best and this is the only way they will get it.
