Supply List:  Bring what you have if you already have supplies


Acrylic paint - You need a red, yellow, blue, black and white at a minimum.
Walmart has a Daler Rowney Acrylic set of 12 paint tubes for $7.97.  


Palettes I use most often from my 2 favorite brands: 1. Golden Fluid Acrylics -
Colors: Titanium White, Bone Black or Carbon Black, Cerulean Blue Deep,
Ultramarine Blue, Hansa Yellow Light, Diarylide Yellow, Naphthol Red Light,
Quinacridone Magenta.  2. DaVinci Fluid Acrylics - Colors: Titanium White,
Carbon Black, Phthalo Blue, Ultramarine, Hansa Yellow Light, Hansa Yellow
Medium, Naphthol Red Light, Rose Madder Quinacridone.


For those starting from nothing I list 2 brands above. To cut down on cost you can get the 1 oz. bottles
(stores sell different sizes, so check around) and/or get less colors than listed - get white, black,
Cerulean Blue Deep, Hansa Yellow Light, and Naphthol Red Light, these would make a decent
minimal palette of colors.


Brushes - Walmart has a set of smaller brushes and a set of larger brushes
for $4.47 each pack.  You need 3 brushes that vary in size at a minimum.


Canvas panels x 1, size 16 x 20 and x1 11 x 14.   Walmart has sets of 3
Canvas Panels for $3.97 and $4.97.  You can use many things for your surface -
stretched canvas, masonite, foam core, wood panels, watercolor paper, etc.  
Some surfaces will need to be prepped so email me if you choose an unusual
surface.


Palette - you can use thick paper plates or an old tray or a palette.


Optional - Bring a table easel or floor easel if you have one and prefer to work
upright.  Each student will have a table space and chair for work space.


Misc. - An old hand towel, paper towels, water container to clean brushes, tape,
pencil, eraser, a fine mist spray bottle

** Acrylic will stain clothes so either wear old clothes or an apron or smock
