What to bring

A few suggestions of what you need to bring on your painting holiday so that you are better equipped.

We suggest you bring the following:

  • Paints of your choice (tubes preferred)
  • Brushes (no. 6, 10 and 16 recommended)
  • Watercolour paper/pad (hard backed)
  • Small sketch pad to do quick sketches when we go out on trips
  • Pencils (HB and 2B recommended)
  • Tape
  • Masking tape
  • Water container
  • Small back-pack bag to carry your things
  • Sunhat
  • A camera

A TIP: to get the best results, you should use the best materials you can afford.

 

We provide the following:

  • Small fold up stools
  • Boards to rest on your knees when working in watercolour
  • Boards to stretch water-colour paper
  • Paper rags

Soon we’ll have a digital image printer available for all our clients, so that you can immediately print a set of photographs you have taken on the trips we take, and you can then use these to help for painting source material.
