<p><span>The following list is just a suggestion of what you could use. Most of you already have your own supplies and favorite colors, brushes and surfaces and are not expected to equip yourself with all that I list: Oil Paints: Titanium white,cadmium yellow lite, cadmium orange,cadmium red lite, alizarin crimson, transparent brown oxide, chromium green oxide, viridian, cobalt blue, ultramarine blue,ivory black. I mostly use bristle brushes, mainly brights #2,#4,#6,#8,#10. I usually have at least two or three of each. I will use some round sables for detail or to sign my name. I mostly use ready made oil primed linen panels to paint on, from 4"x6" to 12"x16" to paint outside. Bring a variety of sizes including 8"x10",9"x12",11"x14" to paint on. </span><span>Have a good easel such as the French easel, backpack easel or one of the many good pochade paint boxes on the market. </span><span>Have a good size container to clean your brushes with and a small cup for your medium. I use odorless Turp to clean brushes and for my medium. I usually use a glass or plexiglass palette,wood palettes are fine as are the fold out palette. Please, no paper palettes. I have a palette knife and/or a scraper to clean my palette and a roll of paper towels to clean my palette and brushes with. Have some comfortable shoes and practical clothes for whatever weather one may encounter. Do not wear any bright shirts or such that might reflect color into your painting surface. A hat or visor to keep the sun out of your eyes and a plein air umbrella is optional, but does come in handy. Equipment and paints do get expensive, and do the best you can, but cheap paints,brushes and panels can really keep a person from doing their best work. The first day or so we will probably just be doing smaller studies in the 6"x8" to 9"x12" range to get people warmed up. Bring a good sense of humor and we will work hard and have a good time doing it!!</span></p>
