This term consist of 11 full weeks.  Below is a list of what I hope to accomplish in those weeks.  As students complete these projects I will photograph their pieces and keep a digital portfolio of their work.  This work can then be shared with family and friends. You can even create personalised items that are just great as original keepsakes.  The other side to this is that any keepsake you pruchase 20% comes back to the Rosewood art program.  So help spread the word and get our girls beautiful art work shown around the world.
