Paint:

Any watercolor paint will work. I will be using Qor Watercolor paints for the majority of the lessons. I will also show how to make your own paint, if you desire.

The brands I like the most:

Qor - Modern Watercolor

Kuretake - great for the price

Sennelier L'Aquarelle - Honey based watercolors

Not ready to commit, but want to play? Prang offers a very affordable set of student grade watercolors that are surprisingly great!

Metallics - for all your shimmery needs.

Travel - Great little set for traveling.

Make Your Own:

Gum Arabic + Pigments (by color) + Honey (optional) + Pans + glass-muller (optional)
