What educators are saying

The art project was a hit! It sparked creativity and allowed my students to express themselves freely. They enjoyed the hands-on experience and were proud of their unique creations. Highly recommend for fostering artistic growth in the classroom!
This lesson was outstanding. I used it with my fourth graders to create Black History Month portraits. They were highly engaged and loved using water color paint with oil pastel crayon. The Bayard Rustin, Ann Cole, and Maya Angelou portraits were some of my faves!
