Suggested Supply List

Sample supply list

I prefer working in oils because my mixture will stay wet for the class. Acrylic will dry quickly so you will need to keep them wet with water or a retarder. Also you will not need the brush cleaner as you will use water instead. Bring reference materials to work from. Can be photos, magazines, art that inspires you, drawings,  etc… Can be digital. Tablet or phone.

Please use the pigment codes for the yellow, blue and red an not the names. No mixtures, make sure only one pigment code is listed on the paint. You can use any brand as long as the pigment code is correct.
