My Project

My project is helping some amazing students at SHS who are working on art portfolios for both 2D and 3D art. These supplies will provide the extra few items needed to complete a college worthy portfolio.

The field of art and design is an excellent career for students today, and I always attempt to relate students' work and art to the "real world." Portfolios will emphasize professionalism, outstanding work, and presentation, and the students will have something that is both very well done and that has a real world application, and contribute their development as artists and help in their getting scholarships and in acceptance to a university or art school.
