Don't waste a lot of money arming yourself with a lot of equipment you
will hardly ever use. The basics are what I have found is all you will
mostly use.
From the start you will need to purchase the following:
- Paper, Paint and Brushes.
- Masking tape.
- Gummed sealing tape (called gumstrip in the UK).
- A plastic Palette.
- A Cartridge sketch pad (A4 size).
- A roll of tissue - damping off brushes and mopping
up excess moisture.
- Putty rubber and small sponge (for lifting color
out).
- HB, 2b and 4b Pencils and sharpener.
- Masking fluid (although I rarely use it).
- Something to hold water in (I use an assortment of
plastic drinks bottles cut to size).
- Painting Board. A Universal Art
box (well I'm bound to say that) but something to hold everything in
is useful. You don't really need an easel, but a flat piece of
plywood approx 24"x 18". A couple of old books to create
an angle of about 30-35 degrees is a must at some stage.
Some of the above items are available to buy at the
Gallery, some you may have already however, if you have any problems getting
any of the above let us know (mail the webmaster below) and we'll try to
help out.
