Materials List

Winsor Newton Cotman Sketchers Box 12 colours

Watercolor brushes round #12 or #10, and #6, are all you will need.  Taklon is a good synthetic. Sables are great. All brushes should bounce back to a point or their original shape. Wet them to find out. If they lie flat, not worth the trouble.

A palette (not plastic), ceramic is good, a white dinner plate will work

Paper: pad of Strathmore Watercolour 300 or 400 series or other 140 lb or 300gm cold press wc paper made by Fabriano, Arches, BFK, or Johannot

For clean up and brush control, rags or a sponge are best as a means to control the amount of water in your brush. With a plastic bag for carrying

2 Yogurt containers for water

A fine spray mister  (sprayer)
