My Project

Help us to have more of what we need to do our assignments! Students have mentioned that we are running low on violet paint, that we are out of stretched canvases, that they need new watercolors for the second semester, and that the alcohol markers are getting dry. We have our architecture use coming up, and the students are very excited about our French Impressionism unit starting tomorrow, and we will need all of the help we can get to be able to do our best work, and to be free to fail and start again. This is one of the best ways to learn in a safe environment.
