“Splash!" Workshop Materials List

Drawing tools:

• 1 - 3 Bold/bright colored pencil of you choosing. (NOT water-soluble, NOT yellow, white or black)

• White eraser

• 2H graphite pencil

Color: I will be supplying all Private Reserve inks for the workshop

• Opaque white gouache: Permanent White is good, so it Dr. Martins Bleed-Proof

White (comes in small jar). We will be using a minimal amount of this so you and a friend can share to save on cost.

Avoid Zinc white gouache, avoid any white watercolor

Brushes: Synthetic is fine. These are the sizes I will be working with but if you have

something similar that is alright too.

• 1 Wash brush: 1 1/2 “ or 2” (inexpensive Hake brushes are OK, however expect to

pick hairs out of your painting!)

• 2 Rounds that come to a nice point when wet: #4 & #10 or larger

Painting surfaces:

• Watercolor paper: 2 full sheets (22” x 30”) 140lb cold press. Our projects will be cut to size from these papers (see diagram below) These sizes do not need to be exact so if you have a watercolor pad or block that is close in size that will be fine too. Feel free to bring any extra watercolor practice paper if you like.

Artist grade recommended. Thinner student grade papers do not take the inks as

well.

• Drawing board to accommodate 15” x 22” (drawing tote board, gator foam, foam

core, “The Incredible Art Board” all ok).

Other materials:

• Spray bottle

• Rubber gloves to protect your hands

• Palette with at least 6 large/deep wells.

Plastic “Mochi” snack containers work well.

• At least 1 BIG water bucket. We will be

changing water constantly!

• Paper towels

• Pencil sharpener

• Salt (any kind of salt ok)
