Supplies for Acrylic Class
I recommend Golden Open Acrylics. They are a
new type of acrylic paint that has retarded drying properties.
They are
available at the websites listed below. Call the local stores
to verify that they carry this line if you decide to buy locally.
Emphasize
OPEN acrylics. They are very new, and different from all other
brands. Golden is the only current manufacturer of these paints.
If you already have paints, talk to me before you buy additional
supplies.
Colors for a basic Golden OPEN Acrylic palette- 2 oz tubes
Titanium White- get 2 tubes or a 4 oz bottle of white

Basic Brushes-
synthetic bristles, the best that you can afford. Cheap ones
will not hold their shape. I recommend Jack
