The artful field journal: Autumn Leaves in Watercolor
materials list
Any sketchbook or journal you have can work for this class. It is recommended to use a journal that opens flat, with pages thick enough to handle watercolors. It also works fine to use single sheets of watercolor paper.
No. 2 or HB pencil
Any type of watercolor brushes. A No. 8 or 10 round and a No. 3 or 4 round (or a “water brush”) are recommended.
Any type of paint. Tube watercolors are recommended, but any type of watercolors, tempera, acrylics, or colored inks, can all work.
Palette for paint mixing. This can be a plastic lettuce bin lid, a paper plate covered with saran wrap, a china plate, or a traditional paint palette, if you have one.
Spray bottle for water, if you have one.
Collected autumn leaves of varied types and colors.
