Set up your home Painting practice!

Experience the joy and convenience of creating/painting from home in a supportive zoom class.
 
I am passionate about supporting folks to have a regular creativity practice. We were all born with creative life force energy flowing through us. No one needs any training or talent. All you need is courage, curiosity and willingness to explore.


Setting Up for Painting via Zoom Meetings
The experience of painting together online will be different from what you are used to if you have been painting in the classes. But our intuitive voice—our process of tapping into creativity—can find its way, even in this virtual space.

Using Zoom
You don’t need to create your own Zoom account, but you will need to download the Zoom Client software. I will send you a link that you can use each time you come to class. 
 

Painting Materials and Home Setup
Use what you have!

You can use whatever paints, brushes and paper you have on hand; you can even use crayons, markers, pens, pencil.  If you'd like to replicate the Sacred Space Painting Studio as much as possible view the materials list below.


Material Suggestions
Brushes:

Richeson Squirrel Brush set of 5:  https://www.rexart.com/product1157.html

In addition to the set of 5 above, order a Richeson round size 8 or 9.
Richeson brushes  available at Rex Art

​
Paint:
We use a high quality tempera paint available at Dickblick: Blick premium tempera paint.
I would order 6 basic colors of Blick premium tempera paints : https://www.dickblick.com/items/00011-0069/
Plus a bottle of brown, orange, magenta, purple, teal, flourescent pink, peach, and an extra bottle of white for mixing.
It is easy and convenient to use a white ice cube tray to store the assorted colors of paint in for easy access. Just place saran wrap over the tray and store in the fridge when not in use. 

If you want a starter kit already set up go here:

Paper:
The studio buys paper in bulk. It is 80# Bristol Vellum, 26x20 inches. I sell it for a dollar a sheet. 
But feel free to purchase similar paper, not exactly the same size but close enough, through Dickblick:
- Strathmore 300 Series Bristol Pad - 19'' x 24'', Vellum, 20 Sheets: https://www.dickblick.com/items/13307-1001/ or
- Blick Bristol Pad - 19'' x 24'', Vellum, 15 Sheets: https://www.dickblick.com/items/13329-1019/
​​
Boards/Backing to Protect Your Walls:

Celotex or fiber boards (also called sound boards), available at building supply stores.
​Inexpensive and lightweight alternative: Elmer's tri-fold poster board 36"x48", available through Amazon and Target

You can also just paint on a big piece of cardboard or tape up shipping paper with painters tape to protect the walls. Get creative. It doesn't have to be perfect. I  have a roll of thick shipping paper and would be glad to let someone use some long sheets of it if they would like. I put towels on the floor to protect the area but canvas or cardboard could be used as well. 

​This process painter has lots of supplies for painters. Anything from here would be great as well!
