Have you ever tried to paint a beautiful picture with only one size brush? What about with a brush that looks like a dandelion head? As an adult artists we would go straight to the store and purchase new brushes. Currently my students are limited to just such brushes, especially as they can not share supplies this year because of COVID19. As an art teacher is hard to teach proper technique when you don't have the right tools. As a student is hard to create a successful piece of art if you don't have the right tools. Help me get my students so excited by art that they will never stop creating. The products that I have selected will help my students by giving them the tools that will make them successful. I have seen how excited the students get when they get to use "real art" supplies and for artists who paint, their brushes are the most important tools. Studies have shown that art helps students in all areas of education, especially problem solving and building self esteem. By donating to our project, you will help students build self esteem and ultimately help increase student achievement.
