Supply list for Cris Weatherby’s Class
​
**Palette with moist paint  See suggested colors
PLEASE do not show up with dried tiny dabs of paint in your palette.  You are worth a full squirt! Fill it up Honey!
 
Brushes:  Pick only six:  a wash brush that holds a lot of water, plus rounds.  If you are not sure, email me a picture of your brushes.
 
Watercolor Paper torn into 1/4 sheets   (Arches 140lb cold press)  If you have never torn this paper, just bring the full sheet.
 
Pencils, Sharpie Marker   Important for Value studies
Paper towels
Eraser
Tape
Board
Container for water
10 reference photos  (Printed or on your iPad, NOT ON YOUR PHONE)  (For the 2 day or 4 day classes only)
 
Sketchbook and note taking book (they can be the same book.)
 
*** A fine mist spray bottle, not one that squirts blobs.  We will be using this to keep your painting workable.  I recommend
Chroma Atelier Fine Mist Water Sprayer, available at Amazon, etc.
 
There are always rags, table easels, salt, alcohol etc here for you to use.

**It is very important to use professional grade paint and good paper.  Please do not buy Cotman or other Student Grade paint or you will be disappointed with the results.  I use Winsor Newton and Holbein.

Suggested colors:  A warm and cool of the Primaries, plus Burnt Sienna and Neutral Tint or Black
Red:   Alizarin Crimson, Vermillion or Cadmium Red
Blue:  Cobalt, French Ultramarine
Yellow: Aureolin or Lemon Yellow, Raw Sienna
