This list is for oil painters. Watercolor, pastel, or acrylic painters should bring the equivalent. Get at craft stores or online at dickblick.com. Contact Hank if you have questions: 312 560 3916 or [email protected].
(Note to acrylic painters: your only medium is water. Also, bring a water spray bottle or stay wet palette to keep your paint moist.)
– portable easel (You must provide. Loaners will not be available). I suggest a French easel or a Stanrite 500 aluminum.
– a portable/fold-up table to hold a pallet and paints
– Three medium canvases: e.g. 12×14 per session
– pallet (Get the largest tear-off pallet e.g.16×20 or bigger)
– mineral spirit solvent (at least a quart)
– brush cleaner jar with wire insert
– cup for medium
– cotton tee shirt material, wipe cloths (not paper towels)
– brushes (#4 and #10 flat bristles are all you need)
– Gamblin Galkyd lite medium or Galkyd gel (use instead of varnish and oil). Gel will be preferred, but lite will work.
