Linda Lord Watercolor Class
Materials List
Paper: Arches 140lb. Cold Pressed (Sheets or blocks)
*I have tried almost every other paper, and in my opinion, this is the most versatile paper!
Brushes: Good quality synthetic type brushes are excellent. My personal favorite is Holbein Gold, Series 001. Not available in most places, but I will try to keep a veriety pf them in the Watercolor Society Supplies, which I will have with me.
Pallets: I prefer that you have one 16” plastic pallets, which are available in all the local art stores. If you are serious about the desire to paint, starting with the small pallets is a waste of money.
Basic Paints:
Grumbacher Golden Yellow
Grumbacher Red
Ultramarine Blue (Any Brand)
Burnt Umber (Any brand except Daniel Smith)
Quinacradone Gold by Holbein ONLY
Cobalt Blue by Holbein ONLY
DO NOT purchase any tube green. No White, black, or grey.
Other Paints (Optional):

Most items are available through the Watercolor Society and kept in my car. We order in volume amounts and therefore save on shipping costs.
