Dear Evil Teacher,
        "Her daughter had
twisted things to make me an evil
teacher. Which yes, I can be. But I am
not there to make them feel better about
themselves. I am there to teach them
visual skills. It is a perk if we have
a lot of fun along the way."

        I won't take exception with your "non-project" method.
If this works for you that's great. Still students like to have
something in the end that they can be proud of, for display
or to take home.
        I do take exception with you not being there "to make them
feel better about themselves." Every teacher of young people is
there to help students feel better about themselves, especially the
art teacher. Yes, you missed something in your teacher training
if this was not emphasized.
