Supplies:
QoR Watercolors (colors can be bought individually or in the 24 color set with many other useful colors I recommend) Neutral Tint, Permanent Alizarin Crimson, Phthalo Blue (Green Shade), Nickel Azo Yellow https://www.jerrysartarama.com/qor-wa...

Brushes: You want soft brushes for the color glazing such as the mimic squirrel brushes in a variety of sizes: https://www.jerrysartarama.com/mimik-...

For the grisaille layer using neutral tin you can use whatever brushes you prefer. If you are not using QoR neutral tin be sure to test your "black" on the paper you plan to use for lifting as you want a standing color that is hard to lift. If you do not have a non lifting black watercolor use a non shellac waterproof black ink.


Important! You will also want a soft blunt round or filbert (aka mop brush) that will be used dry for blending and mottling color. Do not rinse this brush while we paint, it is to remain dry for the duration of the painting and then you can clean it. A mimik filbert will be good for this or any small soft mop you have.

Paper: I recommend the Aquabee #140 6"x9" cotton watercolor paper I usually use for tests or try the Fabriano Artistico 7"x10" test pack for $2.25 at jerry's https://www.jerrysartarama.com/fabria... because these paper will not lift as much as other more heavily sized paper. Plus it's a good deal!
