My Project

Our students are very very talented! Some of them actually come to class with art work that they have been working on from home. Most times they work with just pencil and do not have any other a Having a variety of art supplies in our classroom, I believe, will motivate our students to delve deeper into their love for art by exploring and building their art skills. Students will learn how different techniques work with different art materials.

Along with exploring the various material, our students will learn about different artists and their art styles, hopefully inspiring our students to find their "Art Lane."
