Painting should be fun and an outlet for your creative energy, and you should feel safe to learn in an environment that is helpful and encouraging and NOT judgmental or stressful. This is the place for that! Angela will give you some ideas on how to get started in this versatile medium, helping you to feel more confident through the skills you will be practicing and the tools you’ll get to know.

What you can expect to learn:

• what kinds of brushes make what kind of marks, and what brands to buy
• helpful tools to aid you in getting your drawing, values, and colors right
• where to begin and how to move forward without getting “stuck”
• how to layer your paint without making mud

What to wear: clothes that can get stained

PALETTE (included in kit):

Note: The above items are included in the kit, but are also available for purchase separately.

IN ADDITION TO THE ABOVE ITEMS:

• Two additional brushes (Princeton long handled Snap Taklon brushes are preferred):
  - About a 1” sized synthetic filbert or bright brush
  - One round brush, small-to- medium sized (if it has a nice point to it, size doesn’t matter too much.)

AND:

• One canvas or canvas panel: between 9x12 and 11x14 inches
• Glass container with lid for walnut oil
• Palette Knife for mixing paint
• Paper Towels
• Tabletop or standing easel - Cole Studio has several easels; call the gallery at (425) 697-2787 to reserve one.

*OR Pay $20 supply fee to the instructor for use of her paints, brushes, and walnut oil.
(Note, you must let us know by March 10 if you need to have Angela provide the supplies.) You will still need to bring a palette, canvas or canvas panel, paper towels, container for mineral spirits and bring or borrow an easel.
