Materials you must bring to class:

• Acrylic Paints: A basic set of primary colors (red, blue, yellow), plus black and white. You may expand with secondary colors (green, orange, purple) and some earth tones (brown, sienna).
• Brushes: A variety of brush sizes and shapes, including flat, round, and detail brushes. Synthetic brushes are suitable for acrylics.
• Palette: A palette for mixing your paints. A plastic or glass palette is ideal, but a disposable paper palette also works.
• Canvas or Painting Surface: Stretched canvas, canvas boards, or canvas paper. For beginners, canvas boards or paper are usually more economical.
• Palette Knife: For mixing paints and creating texture on your painting.
• Water Container: A container for rinsing your brushes.
• Cloths/Paper Towels: For cleaning brushes and wiping up spills.
• Apron/Old Clothes: Acrylic paint can be hard to remove from fabric once dry, so wear something you don't mind getting messy.
• Spray Bottle: To keep your paints moist on the palette.
• Pencil and Eraser: For sketching your initial design on the canvas.
• Storage Box/Bag: To keep all your supplies organized and easy to transport.

Optional materials:

• Easel: A tabletop easel if you prefer to paint at an angle, though this is optional and depends on your comfort.
• Mixing Mediums: Optional, but you might want to have some acrylic mediums like gloss medium, matte medium, or modeling paste to experiment with different textures and finishes.

Instructor: Edom Alagaw. Class size: 6-12 participants. Register by March 10.
