Beginning Watercolor Suggested Class Supply List

I'd like each student to have their own watercolor artist supplies to continue practice at home. Please bring to each class the following: (Below are some links to purchase if that helps you.)

 Pencil (#2 is fine)

 Soft eraser

Something white to use for a palette (Styrofoam tray is fine)

Something to put water in (cup or jar)

Paper towels or napkins

I don’t want you to go out and spend a lot of money on artist supplies for this class—unless that makes you happy in which case you SHOULD! But Good Paper is a MUST.

Please get some 140 lb or heavier cold press paper, either sheets or in a block. I recommend either Arches brand or Lanaquarelle


 

Watercolor brushes. 1 or 2 flat (I suggest 1” and a 3”) and 1 or 2 different round brushes

Tube watercolor student grade paint.
Suggested colors: Alizarin Red, Ultramarine Blue, Lemon Yellow, Burnt Sienna
