Canvas: You will need one canvas, pre stretched and primed, of around 16 x 20 size, and no larger than 24 x 30. Containers/ Cleaners: You might want a little medium, if you are using water based oils, then be sure to get medium specifically designed for those. I would get either linseed oil or "Grumbacher's Max Quick Dry" medium for water based oils, 75 ml. You will need a small-lidded jar to keep for water, baby food jar sized. With water-based oil paints you will not need any solvents for clean up, however, you will need some Brush Washing Soap sold at any of the art stores, or some laundry detergent. If you are using regular oil paint, then just get artist s linseed oil, preferably sun-thickened and some Turpenoid (turpentine substitute) Miscellaneous: Palette (Can be plastic, wood, or disposable pad) Some Cotton Rags Paper towel roll Optional: Rubber Gloves One Palette Knife [continued on next page] 12
Paint: You will have bought a basic range of colors for class, however, if you wish to use a lot of paint, paint outside of class, or would want to try some other colors, feel free to purchase those. We are recommending water-based oil paints for the class, which look and handle just like regular oil paints but with easier clean up and less noxious fumes. Below is a list of useful colors found in any kind of oil paint, and the italicized ones at the top are those that will be needed for class. Titanium White Ultramarine Blue Cerulean Blue Cadmium Yellow Medium Cadmium Red Medium Alizarin Crimson Yellow Ochre Burnt Sienna Burnt Umber Raw Umber Sap Green ----------------------- Raw Sienna Naples Yellow Paper plates will be provided in class to be used as palettes, however, if you plan on painting outside of class it would be a good idea to get your own acrylic or wood palette. 13
