MINIMAL SUPPLIES, CARRY AND CREATE ANYWHERE
Supplies needed:
Hot-pressed watercolor paper tile 4x4 inches printed with a grid (template provided in the lesson)
Black inking pen, my favorite is the Sakura Micron 01
Black colored pencil. My favorite is the Polychromos
Blending stump
Graphite pencil. My favorite is Staedtler Mars F pencil.
No printer? Use a grid stencil to mark dotted grid. Find a 3.5 inch one here
Optional: create and print your own grid using one of these websites. Remember I do not endorse or own any of these, so caution when using:
1) Gridzzly: super easy to use, my favorite.
2) Incompetech: offers many different options and different selections. Careful with the ads and misleading green buttons.
3) Printablepaper: huge selection of shapes, but doesn't offer option to customize the paper size.
