These are just the supplies I used, but feel free to substitute with what you have!
- Watercolor paper (I used Canson block, 140Ib, 12×18’) ?
- Graphite pencil for the sketch ?
- Various sized Paint brushes ?
- Salt, a straw, gauze, stencils or any heavy textured paper or cloth that will leave a mark (see first video for examples) ?
- White gel pen (optional) ?
- Watercolors (You can use your favorite colors, feel free to use what you have! I used Daniel Smith: Quinacridone genuine gold, quinacridone coral, quinacridone rose, rose of ultramarine, and Phthalo blue.
- Acrylics (I suggest the fluid acrylics from Golden if you have them, otherwise heavy body diluted with a lot of water and glazing fluid works ok too. I would avoid matt craft paints as they wouldn’t work so well for this project.) the colors I used are: Phthalo blue, Dioxazine purple, Teal, Quinacridone burnt orange, Payne’s gray. ? Pastel pencils or Color pencils (optional) I used the colors: Teal, Yellow, White, Purple and Hot pink.?
