Ms. Robinette from Norton VA is requesting art supplies through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Erase Some, Paint Some

Help me give my students some of the basics for drawing and painting we desperately need: paint brushes and block erasers.

My Project

My students love creating art, and for a lot of them, watercolor embodies "art." The color and fluid motion capture their attention and help them to "zone out" into their artistic thoughts. I have had several to many fall in love with art! Viewers can see this in their work. However, without the basics of paint brushes and block erasers, we can't achieve anything close to our goals. My students understand this and do not waste the materials we have. They are happy to share, but it can be frustrating when you are in the zone and want to work without interruption.
