Materials List

Pencil
kneaded eraser
OPTIONAL ITEMS (If you have these, then please bring them. If aren’t sure, just bring your curiosity on the first day. We will experiment with materials):
Black waterproof fineliners in the following sizes: .03, .05, .08, brush. (Zig Millenium, Staedtler, Micron, or Faber-Castell are all good brands)
Watercolor pre-set palette: Winsor and Newton Cotman 13pc Pallette Pocket Set or Sketchers’ Pocket Set is a good place to start. However, whatever you have on hand and would prefer to paint with is fine, as long as it is small and portable.
