The paints, brushes, and palettes will be utilized by young artists as they learn how to use a brush, mix colors to create new colors, alter tints, and shades, and color theory. This cart will make a painting experience accessible to my art students as they learn and understand color relationships, mixing colors using primary colors, and the emotive qualities of colors. Visual perception, and the knowledge of color allows you to understand an artwork at a deeper level, and will enhance students' sense of color And ability to interpret artworks. Color knowledge increases student understanding about everything they come in contact with visually, and experience. Understanding how our eyes see color will not only allow students to create beautiful artworks, but appreciate the colors that surround their daily life. Painting is an expressive outlet, and foundational art technique where students can creatively express their identity, voice, and style. Students will have their own brushes, palette, and opportunity to learn how to mix their own colors while exploring the technique of paint. Color theory and color relationships are vital throughout the art making process, as well as everyday decisions when shopping, traveling, exploring, and interpreting the world around us. The water colors make an additional medium accessible to each student in my classes to experiment with two different painting mediums. The cutting mats will make printmaking an opportunity in our class, as students will use the cutting mats, markers, and blades to learn another art technique that does not require as much color mixing.
