WHAT TO BRING TO

GOUACHE PAINTING CLASSES

art materials are available from The Artists Apothecary (where class is held). You can order these materials from Lisa and she will have them ready for you in class - 0428 266 834

  • 2B & 6B pencil, sharpener, kneadable eraser

  • flat plastic tray or board for a palette (a plastic chopping board or large flat-ish tuppaware container is perfect). This will get wet so plastic is best.

  • bulldog clip (for clamping the baking paper onto you board)

  • paper (any brand watercolour paper is great, or non-watercolour paper is fine too as long as it’s on the thicker side, around 200gsm)

  • brushes - flat/filbert brushes with softer bristles.

Painters tape/masking tape:

Painters tape is hard to find! But The Artists Apothecary has it. Or normal making tape will do as well.

Gouache tube paints:

Any brand is fine. You can use any blue, red and yellow along with a white and a black. I use these packs from the Artists Apothecary (around $50 - $60) which have the following colours:

❤️ Quinacridone Magenta PR122

💙 Winsor Blue red shade PB15 (also known as Phthalo Blue red shade) or Ultramarine Blue

💛 Cadmium Lemon PY35 (Winsor Lemon, Winsor Yellow, Aureolin are fine too)

♡ Titanium White
