What supplies will I need?

An eCourse allows you to utilize the products you already own, or find supplies within your budget and country. We recommend you have these basics to get started:

  • SCRAPE TOOLS - We most recommend specialized Squeegee and Wedge Tools. However, there are many everyday items you could use such as a putty knife, palette knife, old credit or gift card, cardboard, watercolor paper, and more!
  • PAINT: You'll want paint that has a thinner or more fluid viscosity like soft body acrylics, fluid acrylics or craft paint.
  • APPLICATORS - For finer lines, dots and details we recommend applicator bottles with easy to use tips for applying your paint. It is also possible to use household tools such as cotton swabs.
  • PAPER - We recommend a nice thick, smooth Bristol or mixed media paper. Watercolor paper may be used if you desire a textured finish.
  • Other basic painting supplies such as a water vessel, non-porous mixing palette, paper towels, low adhesive tape & cheap copy paper.

Before purchasing supplies for the course, we recommend watching the introductory videos where Lori goes over options, pros and cons, and recommendations.
