• Pencil set for graphite studies (whatever pencils you like to use for sketching - I typically have 3 pencils on hand when I'm sketching - F, 2B and 4B is a useful set).
• Eraser, pencil sharpener, tortillion and/or stump if you like using them
• Clear plastic ruler
• Tracing paper if you like to use it for transferring sketches
• A sketch pad for sketches and rough drafts
• Watercolors - if you already have a set that you like, please bring it. If you don't have watercolors or your set needs some updating, these are some colors I use a lot. These are just suggestions - please don't feel obligated to buy these! (We won't use a lot of paint in the class, and I'd be happy to share a dab of mine if you'd like to try one.)
Phthalo blue
Cadmium red
Alizarin crimson
Quinacridone gold
New gamboge
Hansa yellow
Sap green
Ram umber
Burnt umber
Raw sienna
Burnt sienna
Neutral tint(Note on watercolors - I've found it really benefits me to pay the extra for the good quality, professional paints, and I only use tube paints.)
• Brushes - other than a 1 1/2 inch wash brush, I exclusively use round brushes, ranging in size from 4 to 00. Everybody has their favorite type of brush, and I really like Rosemary & Co. Snowdrops and Da Vinci Cosmotop spins... I love them and a bonus is that they're both vegan! Bring what you have, and buy a few new ones if yours are old and crusty…Other watercolor materials - palette, water jars (I use two), paper towels, and anything else you need.
