Good brushes are essential. Poor brushes lose many hairs when used which will frustrate the painter.

Students are encouraged to work with the following materials.

 

 Other recommended items are:

~ kitchen roll/ paper towels.

~water vessels, two containers, small cups or bowls, for washing your brushes. Old clean yogurt containers work great.

~ small water spray bottle. You can use a empty body spray bottle or even pick one up from dollar tree.

~ masking tape. I recommend using a good brand. 3M, Scotch or Duck

~Liquid mask (sometimes called frisket). look for non permanent.

~ course salt and course and fine sandpaper could be fun.
