A very special part of your painting experience will be to start your class with a blank canvas, and leave with a completed painting. The painting supplies you will need are specifically designed for the "wet on wet" technique you will be using.
Required supplies
Bob Ross or Bill Alexander Master Kit (preferably Alexander’s kit)
Canvas (16x20)
(Michael's brand is good).
Table easel
(an example)
Artist odorless thinner
(examples)
Masking tape (1/2” or 1” is fine)
Paper towels (a full roll)
Baby Wipes (for cleaning up)
Ross Brush Beater Rack (optional)
Beater Rack Box
Brush beater rack fits into this Steralite file holder. Makes a good brush beater package for large brushes. (optional).
Thinner container (a very clean paint can or a coffee can with a lid will be ok too).
Large artist palette or plastic coated freezer paper (for blending paints)
Upcoming Class Painting Supplies
Brushes
The set of brushes found in the kit will be used (Large brush, 1" brush, fan brush, script liner and palette knife).
Other brushes used to create a painting will be listed under "Additional".
Some helpful thing to keep in mind about your class.
It’s easy to get paint on yourself and clothing (and you probably will). It will be a good idea to wear your “painting” clothes and shoes.
During “coat” weather, it will be helpful to bring a plastic (trash) bag to put your coat in (little drops of paint thinner and paint can travel far).
Your beautiful painting will take 2-3 weeks (sometimes a little more) to dry. It will be helpful to bring a 16x20 “sheet cake” box to carry your painting home in.
