Supplies Used in Week 1

DO NOT RUN OUT AND BUY ALL OF THESE SUPPLIES FOLKS!!!  As I said before, please watch the videos 1st and see what you absolutely can't live without!  I try to offer alternatives to these supplies too!  I bet you have some on hand already!  Use what you have...art supplies go bad quickly!  And so many times, I've found that sourcing out and buying the supplies is just an avoidance to actually start painting!!!  It's something our Inner Critic tells us we absolutely "NEED" in order to paint! In this workshop...I want everyone's soul to show in their paintings.  No cookie-cutter paintings here!!!  You don't need the exact colors, brands, etc.  You just need passion, energy and a whole lot of BRAVE!  You have to be willing to make that leap into the unknown of the white canvas or paper!  See where you lead yourself!  You are the artist!  I am just merely here to help you understand all the supplies and for inspiration.  It's about the moment when the paint hits the surface...reacting and trying new things.  I tend to grab whatever is closest to me in the moment....hopefully that's not a ketchup or mustard bottle....but I can say it's been my Matcha Green Tea Latte....oh what a beautiful green......
