plastic bags to pop wet items in, and keep your work dry in case it’s wet outside!

I suggest: B-B8 pencils, sharpener

NB: It’s unlikely that we will start painting this week, so for the following weeks:-

painting materials: including a non-breakable paint pot for water,

acrylic paint

acrylic paper

brushes for acrylic paint

palette knife, 2 x palettes.

Cling film to pop over your pallets to take home so you can carry on using the paint.

When choosing your image bear in mind the frame size you would like to use for your finished painting.  Also choose the acrylic paint paper to fit the frame (preferably with an allowance for a mounting board too).
