 BRUSHES

Having brushes in a variety of sizes is preferable.  Flat, filbert, and bright  and my favorites, but feel free to explore. Art is about having fun.
 CANVAS

Canvas or ampersand gesso panel.  Oil primed linen about 9x12" or 11x14" preferably toned. Use Ivory Black and Yellow ochre to create a kind of “green” tone. Keep the tone transparent by rubbing the color on with a rag and turpentine.

OIL PAINT

For this class, you are welcome to bring along any colors you  have, along with the colors listed below.

Michael Harding, Sennelier, Old Holland, Vasari, and Rublev are my Top Brands.

Rublev Lead White (any of them) 

Yellow ochre

Alizarin Crimson

Vermillion

English Red

Cobalt blue 

Ivory black  

viridian

Emerald green

Naples Yellow (ONLY the Vasari naples). If you cannot or do not want to purchase this color that is ok. It is an “extra” color that adds a nice accent to mixtures but is not a  necessity.

PALETTE

Wooden Palette – minimum 12 inches. 

PALETTE KNIFE

OTHER MATERIALS

Linseed oil.

Masking tape.

Brush soap.

Turpenoid

Bring one or two images to work from. And an iPad preferable over printouts. Any animal you wish. Good lighting, clear light and shadow, not blurry, and you'll be good to go:)

Drawing on canvas can be done in advance or in class.
