My Project

As we wrap up this school year, I am planning ahead to restock some of my most used materials. There are also ideas rolling around my mind for new projects I would like to work on with students next year! This year, many teachers asked me to touch on more geometry terms and connecting art to math and science. With new tools such as a compass, I can help students learn about depth, perspective, angles, and so much more!

With new paint and markers in fresh bright colors, I can begin the school year with a bright splash!

Many of my paints and other 2D mediums have been depleted and we are narrowed down to dull colors. The storage cabinets for paint could use a restock!
