Expressive Sketching - Capturing Memories

Please read: 

REQUIRED ITEMS:

Pilot Parallel Pen: a broad edge calligraphy pen, size 3.8 mm medium nib (green cap). Other sizes are fine too; 2.4mm, which is a smaller nib, or 6.0mm, which is a larger nib. These are about $10.00. This pen is essential for this class.

A few refill cartridges (6 in a pack). You may choose “black” or “blue black”. You might like to get both! They are $2.00 each pack.

Any kind of watercolor set and/or a few water soluble color pencils - to add splashes of color to your piece.

Heavy weight drawing paper pad or watercolor paper pad. Size 9"/12", a bit smaller or larger is fine too, your choice! My favorite is the Carson XL multi-media paper pad.

Water brush- pointed. This “water brush” has a plastic barrel that you fill with tap water. Or you may simply bring a pointed brush and a small water container. Medium or larger size is good.

OPTIONAL ITEMS:

A calendar page of an image you like, or any picture of something you'd like to sketch... keep it simple.

Some paper towels

“General’s” charcoal white pencil

Pack your lunch and drinks/ snacks if you like, and perhaps a hat for outdoor time.
