Notes: 
* If you are using tube acrylics, you will need an acrylic medium to mix with them. Buy a matte or low gloss medium. This should be available where you purchased your paints. You will also need an artist plastic palette to properly mix your paints.
* Watercolor Pan Sets will not work for this class
* You MUST have CHALK PASTELS for the second week of class. Paints, oil pastels, colored pencils, etc. will not work for this art work.

A note about paints: It is best to have either liquid acrylic or Tempera paints. Tempera paints are inexpensive paints. They are non-toxic and easily washable You can find them on Amazon. This set is the bare minimum on Amazon "Crayola Tempera Paint Set, 2-Ounce, 6 Count" (it costs about $8.00). 
You will also need a set of CHALK Pastels. This is a good set on Amazon "Mungyo Soft Pastel Set of 48 Assorted Colors Square Chalk" (it costs about $7.00).
A more extensive set of Tempera Paints is on Amazon "U.S. Art Supply 18 Color Children's Washable Tempera Paint Set - 2-ounce bottles". This is a good set of paintbrushes on Amazon "Soucolor Acrylic Paint Brushes Set, 20Pcs Round Pointed Tip Artist Paintbrushes for Acrylic Painting Oil Watercolor Canvas Boards Rock Body Face Nail Art, Adult Kids Drawing Arts Crafts Supplies"

Children should be allowed to explore their own artistic talent. I encourage my students to create artwork that inspires them. Every student will have a different level of ability. As long as the student truly makes a true and sincere effort, they will have succeeded.
