An Illustrated Life - The Joy of Art

Help me give my students an art experience and tools to use for exploring basic drawing and sketching.

FULLY FUNDED! Dr. G's classroom raised $599

My Project

We are an alternative school campus working with students who want a smaller campus and fresh connection to education. A majority of our courses are through an online educational platform but with art supplies such as sketch books, art pencils and colored pencils - our Introduction to Art class could become interactive.

Students could go hands on and try the techniques taught through the digital course and sketch projects as discussed through the class lessons.

Lessons on proportion, point of view, line repetiton or pointillism can experienced not just watched or listened to.
