Outdoor Painting Supplies
The following are recommended for painting outdoors.
For Painting
easel (optional, some artists are happy to work on their lap or a table)
palette (I use a piece of white cardboard plus wax paper & tape or sticky tac)
spray bottle of water
paint – watercolour, or acrylic [Note: for acrylics, the “Golden Glazing Medium” that slows drying is recommended]
brushes

paper or canvas, some larger (1/4 sheet wc or 16″x20″ canvas) and lots smaller (8″x10′) for sketches
paper towels or cloths, plus some small plastic garbage bags
drawing implements, eraser, pencil sharpener
sketch book, and paper and pen for notes
photo references to paint from
box or small folding table to set water and paint on (optional)
