My Project

We have great artists here in North Carolina! They especially love our dry media units. Unfortunately, pencils, erasers and paper are consumed quickly.

Providing young artists with proper tools, like an array of graphite pencils and non-damaging erasers help give students positive experiences in the classroom.

Creating these successes early builds confidence to continue to pursue fine arts later in life.

In our Visual Arts classroom, we learn about value when rendering realistic drawings. This skill is taught in our Intermediate, Proficient and Advanced classes. Please help my students achieve scaled values to create wonderful pieces of artwork!
