MATERIALS
Students can begin with a basic set of materials, and add to their tool kit as needed.
Substrates:
We will be painting on canvas. Stretched canvas is preferred for formal projects, canvas sheets taped to a solid substrate are a great for exercises. Recommended canvas size for beginners is 12” x 16/18”.
Brushes:
Each student may require different brush sets depending on their goals. We recommend starting with flat shader brushes; Golden Taklon brushes for oil paint, Bristle for Acrylics, in an assortment of sizes, as well as small and medium fan brushes.
Paint:
Starter set should include the following: Titanium White
Ivory Black
Cadmium Red Hue*
Cadmium Yellow Hue* Phtalo Blue
Phtalo Green
Raw Umber
Other pigments will be recommended on an individual basis.
Note: do NOT buy, or use in class, the actual Cadmium‐pigment paint, as it is highly toxic and requires special handling. The fake one (It’ll read “Hue”) is just fine.
Other Materials:
Painter’s palette(s).
Small, medium and large palette knives (plastic ok). Odorless turpentine for oil painting.
Graphite Pencil
Pencil Sharpener
Kneaded Eraser
Ruler
Containers for Liquids
