My Project

My students need these materials for a successful painting class. The paint brushes are an essential part of our lesson. The variety of brushes will allow my students to experience different strokes with different brushes. The paint on the list will be a great way for my students to work with a multitude of color. These supplies are detrimental for creating a wonderful work of art! My students are always eager and excited to begin a painting project. The excitement that they show in the art class reminds me of why I chose this profession.
