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.  


The two brands and colors I use most often in my own work: 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 OR 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 -  You need 3 brushes that vary in size at a minimum.


Canvas panels x 2, size 11 x 14.   Walmart has sets of 3 Canvas Panels for $3.97.  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.


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


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