Next weekend we will be giving the Line to Color Workshop, so I am
posting the sketching supplies that students will need for the weekend.
 |
| 5x8 Sketchbook for ink line drawing preferably with no spiral binding so you can draw across the page. |
 |
| Watercolor sketchbook 5x8 landscape minimum. Larger sizes okay |
 |
| Drawing and painting tools. Binder clips to keep the page secure. Painters tape to create a clean watercolor edge. |
 |
| Water color Palettes |
Above are different palettes. There are many types of folding watercolor palettes that vary in price.
I used an old Winsor Newton mini travel palette and changed out the colors with my own Daniel Smith Tube Paints. A mint tin with the lid sprayed with white enamel paint makes a nice small palette that you can easily fit in a pocket. A vitamin pill container can be used as well to hold paints but you would need to bring a separate palette to mix and see paints.
 |
| Water bottles and water containers. The bottles are to keep a reserve of clear water, the water container you use for painting. It can be as simple as a hummus container or purchased collapsible containers. |
 |
| Paper towels folded in a tin is a easy way to wipe excess water from your brush. A sponge will work too. |
 |
| Collapsible camp stool that you can purchase at REI or any camping store is good if you need a place to sit. |
