My Project

Using these resources, students will engage in a variety of art projects that center on drawing and personal self-expression. They will explore techniques such as shading, line work, perspective, and composition while experimenting with different media. Each project will encourage students to express their thoughts, emotions, and experiences through their artwork, helping them develop a stronger artistic voice.

As students build their skills, they will also gain confidence in their abilities and learn to take creative risks.

These experiences will foster problem-solving, focus, and perseverance. By emphasizing self-expression through drawing, students will create meaningful, original pieces while developing both technical skills and a deeper connection to their work.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
