| Firstly, bring a photo of your pet! |
| Materials list for Sandi Gold’s Class if working in pastels: |
| • |
A kneaded eraser |
| • |
Pastels: I use and recommend the brand Rembrandt. A box of 90 although costly, is a good place to start. (Half sticks are fine to start with if you want to save money and not make a large investment in materials.) The more you have, the easier it is for you to work. |
| • |
Foam Core: to be used as a backing board for 1/2 a sheet of Canson paper. |
| • |
1” Masking Tape |
| • |
Vine charcoal (medium) |
| • |
# 8 Flat Bristle Brush (for erasing) |
| • |
Paper: Canson Mi-tienes. Middle-toned colors: Gray or Blue (not too light and not too dark.) |
| • |
(Lotion –free) Baby wipes (for cleaning your hands). |
| • |
Pad of white paper (nothing fancy – simply for sketching before doing your painting) |
| • |
Pencil (sharpened) |
|
|

Brushes: Only buy Bristle "Filberts" #2, #4, #6 Buy the best quality brushes you can afford. For example: Robert Simmons Also you will need a very small round brush for signing your work. |
| • |
Turpenoid (This brand is important to buy because it is odorless. It comes in a blue and white can.) Comes in pint or quart or gallon. |
| • |
A small jar (to put your Turpenoid in - The glass jar that baby food comes in works well.) |
| • |
Palette knife (wood and metal) Buy the kind that is bent in the middle. |
| • |
Canvas (Fredix is best although Jerry's/AWS brand is fine) 11 x 14, 12 x 16 or 16 x 20 |
| • |
Large pad of Palette Paper (Fits perfectly into a large blue and white palette holder.) If you prefer a wooden palette, then by all means buy one. |
| • |
Optional: Large Blue and White plastic palette holder (Your palette fits in this and your paints stay fresher longer. And it makes it far easier to pack and carry your palette) |
| • |
Pencil and pad* (11 x 14”ish) which is all you need for the first day of class. |
| • |
Paper towels or cotton rags (for wiping your brush) |
| • |
And please feel free to bring spring water to drink to class if you want to! |
