Painting surfaces:
Four – 9 x 12 ” Ampersand Gesso Board for painting studies and technique practices
http://www.dickblick.com/zz149/11c/
smooth sponge roller from a hardware store and keep rolling the gesso
until you see it flatten and all the bubbles pop. Let Dry, then lightly sand and
apply 3 more layers following the previous instructions.
It should feel like the surface of an egg.

½” for blending backgrounds
You
will need stiff blending brushes
I recommend Fritch Scrubbers as they do not break hairs when blending paint for my technique,
they come in a 3 brush set for $12.95 (similar to fabric brushes)

If you wish to travel with a small ceramic heater,
or a swing arm lamp with 60 watt bulb,
to help speed dry your oil paintings,
we
will also have a drying box in the class room to use during
the day.
