RASJ’S FAVE ART SUPPLIES

I started teaching online art classes via ZOOM during the COVID-19 Pandemic in 2020.

In All My Classes:

We focus on trusting our intuition, trying new techniques & — most importantly — gathering together with like-minded people online for relaxation & play. Some of the things we might paint include characters, critters, squiggles, abstracts, florals, high inaccurate figures & wonky portraits.

While I like to encourage people to experiment with watercolor, acrylic and multimedia, all you *really* need to participate is an open mind — & a few basic supplies.

People often ask me about which supplies I like, so I’ve finally compiled a list of some of my faves.

SUPPLY LIST:

• • An assortment of pencils, some water activated; some not. (I like Faber-Castell Graphite Aquarelle for water activation.)
  • Pentel Aqua brushes
  • Watercolor set (I use Crayola’s 16-color pack.)
  • Black Gelly Roll 08 pen
  • Watercolor paper – 140 lb
  • Mixed Media Paper  – 9×12 • 140 lb
  • Colored pencils (I like Prismacolor Premier.)
  • Assortment of paint pens. (I like Posca brand.) Liquitex are great, too.
  • Assortment of tissue papers (or magazines or newspapers or old books to rip up)
  • Gel Medium (& disposable sponge brushes to use with it.) I like glossy, but matte or satin are fine, too! It is odor-free & dries to any surface very quickly.
  • Acrylic paints. (I like this Liquitex assortment. Great for people who want every color!)
  • Liquitex White GESSO
  • Assortment of paint brushes (for acrylic)
  • Palette for paint. (You can also use a plastic or ceramic plate.)
  • Assorted stamps: florals, butterflies, etc…
  • Assorted stencils: These are cute!
