Introduction to Acrylic Painting This class is designed for individuals who are new to acrylic painting but are interested in learning the foundations and improving their skill. You will begin by learning about tone, shades, color mixing, and acrylic painting techniques. During this eight-week course, you will complete projects that will enhance your understanding of the process of acrylic painting. We will begin by doing color mixing as well as creating values. To further develop one’s eye we will do a Georgia O’Keeffe- inspired painting, painting close-up compositions that take note of fine details. In addition, the class will learn how to paint a landscape using acrylic paint. We will also complete a project where we explore texture by incorporating textural elements into our paintings. Supplies Needed: 3- 16x20” or 18x24” Canvases or Canvas Panels (mix it up if you want, you don’t have to buy all three in advance) 1- 8x10” or similar size Sketchbook (can be one you already have, if you are purchasing a new one, I recommend one that says 80 lb.

Download Supply List
Awaken your senses to the beautiful symphony that arrives with each Spring. The wonder and awe of nature is the inspiration for this course. We will explore the colours and themes of the season through beautiful florals and sweet garden visitors. Special attention will be given to colour techniques while refining offhand flourishing skills. This course assumes that the student knows the basic pressure and release strokes of the pointed pen. Bring a sense of play with you as we welcome the Spring with these bright and beautiful designs. Supply List: Instructor’s Note: Use what you have on hand. It is not necessary to use the same papers and supplies that I use. Experiment with what you have as you explore these techniques. The only absolute on this list is waterproof ink if you are going to combine your flourishes with watercolour. If you cannot find the suggested waterproof inks, try an acrylic brown ink such as FW or Liquitex. The lines will not be as fine, but the ink will not run when water is added. Practice Paper ( Maruman Imagination suggested), Pencil, Eraser, ruler Practice ink such as Walnut will work for introductory exercises A few coloured pencils in floral colours Note taking supplies Straight pen holder with your favourite nib ( Hunt 22, Hunt 101, Gillott 404 or Zebra G suggested) Waterproof Ink: McCaffery Brown, McCaffery Black or Ziller Buffalo Brown are suggested for the Line and Wash technique Any brand of watercolour that you have for florals. John Neal carries a dot card of my favourite Daniel Smith watercolours.

Art Hazards List
ART AND CRAFT MATERIALS THAT CANNOT BE PURCHASED FOR USE IN KINDERGARTEN THROUGH 6TH GRADE Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment – California Environmental Protection Agency September 2016 California Education Code Section 32064 prohibits schools from purchasing art or craft materials containing a toxic substance for use by students in kindergarten and grades 1-6 (K- 6). The law also requires the Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) to develop a list of products that schools cannot purchase for use by students in K-6. This list (attached) is intended to assist schools, school districts, and governing authorities of private schools in complying with the purchasing requirements. Purchasers must ensure that all art and craft materials to be used by students bear a statement of conformity to ASTM D-4236 (Standard Practice for Labeling Art Materials for Chronic Health Hazards), as required by federal law. Items to be used by students in K-6 must not bear acute or chronic health hazard labels. Although not required by law, avoiding art materials that bear acute or chronic health hazard labels when purchasing for grades 7-12 is a good precautionary measure. Schools are encouraged to inventory existing art and craft supplies and remove materials bearing health hazard labels from K-6th grade classrooms. For further information, please see Art and Craft Materials in Schools: Guidelines for Purchasing and Safe Use, accompanying this list or available online (see below). OEHHA compiled the attached list based on product evaluations conducted by other entities1 according to federal requirements. Other art and craft materials that can be listed are products recalled in the past five years2 (no such products are listed at this time), as well as those brought to OEHHA’s attention as bearing health hazard labels.

Landscape Plein Air Painting Halcyon Teed If You Choose to Use Paint, Purchase Student Grade Oil Or Acrylic Paints. Winsor &Am
Landscape Plein Air Painting Halcyon Teed If you choose to use paint, purchase Student Grade Oil or Acrylic Paints. Winsor & Newton WINTON Oil Paint is good. Whatever brand you choose I recommend the following colors or the equivalent in 37ml tubes. HUE is a synthetic student grade version of the color and quite a bit cheaper. Oil Paints: Cadmium Lemon Yellow HUE Cerulean Blue HUE Cadmium Yellow Medium HUE Ultramarine Blue HUE Cadmium Orange HUE Viridian [green] HUE Cadmium Red Light HUE or Vermilion HUE Titanium White Larger tube is better Alizarin Crimson HUE Sets of oil paints maybe cheaper but will contain colors that you don’t need like ochre, umber and black as well as Not include colors you need. WATER MIXABLE OIL Paints are also available and should have the same names. SOLVENT and accessories: Turpenoid for Oil based paint [no odor] Palette Paper pad or if wood [must be varnished] {freezer wrap can be used} Rags or paper towels, Liquid tight Jar for Turpenoid [glass is preferable] Plastic Palette knife or equivalent to clean palette. OR Acrylics: Several brands are good. Liquitex, Grumbacher Academy, Royal Talens. Regular tubes about 60ml, 75ml to 95ml. Liquitex makes a Basic Set of 12 color 22ml tubes but are quite small. Basically the same colors as above for Oil Paint. Manufacturers have their own naming conventions which is confusing. If no Viridian is available look for Hooders Green. SOLVENTS and accessories: Water, Glass or Plastic Water Container, Palette [ceramic metal or plastic] Palette Paper pad {freezer wrap can be used} AND Brushes: Purchase Hog Bristle FLAT brushes.

Supply List Information for Beginning/Intermediate Painting Students
Supply List Information for Beginning/Intermediate Painting Students For painting you will need to purchase paints, brushes, and a canvas pad or watercolor sketchpad and block. Your personal budget, your skill level, and your interest should dictate how much you choose to spend on these supplies. It can be done very economically or expensively. Paints, brushes, canvas board/pads and watercolor paper can be purchased at United Art and Education (online or at the store on route 42), Michaels, and Hobby Lobby. Online painting supply purchases can be made at Utrecht, Dick Blick, Sax Arts and Crafts, Cheap Joe’s, etc. Paints: Acrylic tube paints, 2 ½ oz. or 4 oz., in red, yellow, blue, white, and black. (For the cheapest version, use student grade tubes in 2-4 ozs.) Watercolor tube paints in red, yellow, blue, white, and black. Some artists will purchase the secondary colors, orange, green, and violet, as well. Some names you will see are Thalo red, alizarin crimson, red madder alizarin, Naples yellow, cadmium yellow, cerulean blue, cobalt blue, hooker’s green dark/light, sap green, etc. You will notice that some colors are bright and some are dull. Try to stick with bright colors for your initial purchases. In acrylic paint, it is nice to also buy orange, green, and violet but only necessary if your primary colors are too warm to mix (a red or yellow that is too “orangey”). Red oxide and yellow oxide are nice to have but not a must. Red oxide and black mix to make a nice brown but brown can be mixed from your primaries as well.
