***************

I will be demonstrating both pastel and colored pencil the first day - if this is your first class you won’t need supplies until the second week. 
       You may bring them if you wish to work or want to ask questions about what you have.

***************

PASTELS:

One Set of NuPastels (96)

One small set of Rembrandt or other soft pastel (especially lighter colors & white)

Canson Mitientes Paper (19 1/2” x 25”) several sheets (med. to dark values)

or Canson makes pads of paper with a glassine sheet in between to keep                           from smearing - you'll want a bigger pad for pastel

Optional Supplies:

You may also work with more expensive pastel papers or sandpaper

May also use small make-up sponges, eye shadow sticks, etc.

Soft erasers, kneadable, magic rub, etc.

Stiff Brush for removing Pastel

Fixatives (Blair or Krylon)

Paper or sketch book to explore preliminary drawings

COLORED PENCILS:

One Set of Prismacolor (72 or 120) or equivalent soft set

One Set of Verithin (36)

Canson Mitientes Paper (19 1/2” x 25”) several sheets (med. to dark values)

or Canson makes pads of paper with a glassine sheet in between to keep from smearing

Optional Supplies:

High Quality Pencil Sharpener (electric is best)

 1 pad of Bristol paper, 14x17” (cold press or “regular surface”, do not

buy hot press or plate finish) - this is if you want to try watercolor

pencil or  a different smoother surface

2 or 3 watercolor pencils or transparent watercolors

1 soft paintbrush

Paper or sketch book to explore preliminary drawings, if you want

Kleenex

Soft erasers, pink pearl, kneadable, magic rub, etc.

**YOU WILL PROBABLY WANT TO CHOOSE JUST PASTEL OR JUST COLORED PENCIL UNLESS YOU ALREADY HAVE SUPPLIES.

I recommend shopping at Binders, Pearls or Utrecht
