- Watercolor Palette
- Highly recommend the largest one you can find (the small 8in rounds are much too tiny).
- Flat plastic tray with multiple wells. See an example here.
- Watercolor Paper
- Highly recommend 1 pad of Arches cold or hot press atleast 9" x 12" glued on all sides. This eliminates warping and the need to use heavy weight watercolor paper.
- If you prefer get sheets of watercolor paper atleast 140 1bs, perferably 300 lbs, but we will have to take the time to mount it on a board.
- Pencil
- I hope nothing is confusing, but if you have any questions please contact me at tiphoni@gmail.com and I'll be glad to help!
