Abstract:	This project is to help students learn about ways to investigate self-esteem and develop resiliency through the medium of visual art. The project is developed with middle school girls in mind but can be used with all people who experience some loss of self through socialization. The art studio lends itself to experiment with ideas and self-discovery with its more relaxed and open atmosphere. The course is divided into three themes: history, myths and folklore, and dreams. Learning activities include: (1) "Cave Paintings"; (2) "West African Women's Decoration on Houses"; (3) "Dream Room"; (4) "Caring"; (5) "Body Image"; (6) "Egyptian Sarcophagus"; (7) "Aboriginal Dream Painting"; and (8) "Assigning Color to Feelings." An evaluation proposal, bibliography, and suggested integrated reading list conclude the paper. (EH)
