    MATERIALS

    •  51 x 61cm good quality canvas board. Quality canvas is essential. As you do not want a board that is not well primed and sucks the life out of the paint – nor one that is too slippery.
    • Art Basics 101 Flat Bristle in all sizes
    • Eterna 579 (a cheap ‘hairy bristle but useful for some effects and softening edges)
    • Monte Marte ‘Rake’ brush - great for grass
    • Art Basics Bristle – round 1 & 2
    • Eterna 582 Bristle round
    • I also cut my own brushes with sharp scissors using old brushes I no longer use. These are great for a variety of uses where texture is required.
    • Thin willow charcoal

    Colours

    • Art Spectrum Australian Red Gold• Art• Art Spectrum Cadmium Yellow• Art Spectrum Ultramarine Blue• Art Spectrum Manganese Blue• Spectrum Burnt Sienna• Spectrum Transparent Red Oxide• & Newton Blue Black• Schminke Titanium White• Sap green
