My Project

Our art classes and art club are in production for this year for our art auction that will take place May 2024. My scholars already have their designs sketched out. We just need this short list of supplies to finish the last few collaborative and individual projects. We designed conversation hearts, and plan to paint the design on a 3-D plaster replica. We also have aluminum foil supports prepared to finish up with our air dry clay.

Our paintbrushes are needed to paint these projects of course.

My scholars only have large Brisiel brushes. We need different sizing in the brushes to better achieve our designs. Art club is in need of sketchbooks to begin their technical drawnings study Thank you in advance for your support.
