Art Projects— Choices

Where are you going to start? Below are some options for your next project. Check them out and buy/order materials to get started. (I always encourage y'all to support local!) Due to my restricted time working at another school, I will source y'all out to other artists who have already made videos that you may utilize. Feel free to search around for online resources that suit your needs!

Just a quick reminder that these videos are for teaching skills. Find a concept you want to explore and use these skills to give your ideas voice.
