Necessary supplies
Necessary supplies would include 140 1b cold pressed 1/2 sheet
approx. There will be quarter sheets available at the Club for
the cost of $1.50 per; or $5.00 full sheet 22x32-- while they
last. A half sheet is 2 quarters. A full is 4 quarters. Arches
and or Winsor Newton recommended for best results. Strathmore
is not recommended.
HB pencil and Notebook Mechanical pencils are ok.
White eraser or eraser pen
Brushes Size: " rounds" 12 or 10 and a 6 or 4 "
Flat" 1 1/ 2 or 2 inch for washes and if you wish a separate
wash brush of your choice for applying just water. " script/rigger"
(thin hair) for small details. These brushes are what you will
need to start with and should be of a good quality and not craft/student
grade that you purchase at the dollar store or Wal Mart -- We
recommend Artist Emporium or Colours who will give you a discount
with the showing of your membership card. Michaels are another
option for brushes but knowledgeable staff is not always available.
Lowell Cornell red neck/black body brushes are generally regarded
as one of the best. This quality of brush will give you good
results and many years of wear. Colors and Artist Emporium will
also give you good advice as to what you should spend your money
on.
Decent quality paints i.e. Cotman, Yarka starter sets, of course
Winsor Newton, Holbein, etc in the tubes or pans to achieve
your best results. If you have questions before you purchase
you may call the Club for guidance.
Spray bottle, tissues (99cent story quality) an old towel for
first class.
This first class is for beginners and those wishing to take
a refresher in the basics which is always a good idea to go
back to the basics for an idea to what you can improve on or
what you are perhaps doing wrong.
The cost for this "planned" class by the Club instructor
is $5.00 per student. Drop in classes as has been the practice
for club members will still occur on Wednesdays as usual. This
means that you may bring whatever you are working on, any media
and usually there will be a more advanced club member/s there
willing to help you with your work. Drop in classes are subject
to no fee as the lesson is not a planned lesson.
Sign up sheet is at the Club. Please indicate your intention
to attend so that the instructor knows how many students to
plan for and bring the necessary information. Thank you for
your assistance with the planning of these classes.
Please check with the club.
