1 stretched canvas (8x10")
Acrylic Paints (bring an assortment of colors, preferably ones you would like the piece to represent) I prefer these colors for this particular piece:
Green Gold
Parchment or Unbleached Titanium
Black
Bright Aqua Green
Baltic Blue
Bronze & Turner's Yellow
Raw Sienna
Brushes: I recommend Synthetic Hair white Talkon but use what you are comfortable with. A selection of 1/2" to fine point are more than suitable, remember to include a 2-3" brush for the initial start to the painting
1 paint wipe cloth, or paper towels
Cup or bowl for water
