Bright brushes for oil: #4, #6, #8, #10 or a good variety of Bright brushes. (Bright's are just short bristled flats) OR you could use Angle brushes: ¼", 3/8", and ½". It will be helpful but not neces-sary to have more than one of each size.


One liner brush in good condition, your favorite will do.


One stiff fabric brush is optional but would be helpful.


2. Palette knife (small trowel shape is best if you have one)


3. Stylus


4. Gray graphite


5. Tracing Paper and pencil.


6. Paper towels


7. Palette Pad for oil if you have one, if not, we will use a Styrofoam plate to put the paint on.


8. 2 small containers with a lid such as a plastic film canister or a baby food jar. One contain-er only needs to hold about a tablespoon of the medium. The other is for a little Mur-phy’s Oil Soap should you choose to take some of mine home to clean your brushes.


9. Optional: Sepia-colored and red-colored Micron or Pigma marker #01.


10. Optional: One pair of sharp cuticle scissors to cut out the bottom of the banner. This step will probably be done at home.


11. Support (like foam core but it can be cardboard) for the fabric which is 12" x 21".


12. Painters tape


You will not need a water container, wet palette or other
