Supplies needed
Paint, brushes, paper, and a few pens
As always, It's recommend visiting your local art supply store, but Amazon will do in a pinch.
Watercolor paint
Windsor & Newton isn't too expensive and is a diverse palette. The watercolors we use will be in “pans”. Those are the little rectangular color blocks you see - as opposed to watercolors in tubes. Which one is better? Both are good!
Buy from Amazon (but go to your local art store first & ask them)
Brushes
Don’t overthink or overspend. A few watercolor brushes will do to start. Just like with the paint, the quality of the brush makes a big difference in the quality of your art. A simple set is fine for now.
If you’re staring at a wall of brushes and are having decision paralysis, get these:
Round pointed 6
Round 10
1/2” or 3/4” flat
Watercolor brushes (again, go to your local art store first.)
Watercolor Paper
This Canson XL watercolor
Buy here (you know what to do though. Local art store first)
Arches watercolor paper is a big step up. It’s more pricey, but much better.
