IF YOU BRING YOUR OWN SUPPLIES:
If you're not renting brushes and paints for class, you must bring ALL your own paints, brushes
and other supplies for the class. Winsor Newton Water Mixable Oils are sold in sets at Michaels and Hobby Lobby, and they have
a starter set that retails for about $28.00. If you use a 40%-off coupon published from those stores in the Sunday paper,
that's a good deal, but those kits do not not contain Burnt Umber-- you will need to buy that color separately. Check
your supply list to make sure you have ALL the necessary paints, brushes, palette paper and other supplies shown below.
There is no way to buy any supplies once you get to class. If you don't bring all required supplies with you,
you may not be able to complete the painting.
Be sure to bring water-mixable oil paints to class. If you have traditional
oils and want to use them you may do so, but bring enough brushes that you don't have to clean them until you get home. NO paint
thinner will be allowed in the classroom.
Don’t wait until the day before class to buy your supplies. If you do, it’s likely
you won’t be able to find everything you need. You may need to go to more than one store to find all the supplies. If
you can’t find all the required paint colors, buy another brand of water-mixable oil color – but don’t come to class without all required
supplies.
If you purchase the Winsor & Newton Artisan brand beginner set of water-mixable oils, it won’t contain Cadmium
Orange or Burnt Sienna. You need to purchase those colors separately, or just do without it; but the instructor will not
supply it. Your painting will look different from the sample if you don’t use these colors.
