MATERIALS LIST 2018

If you are unsure about what materials to buy, please bring a sketchbook and charcoal pencil to the first class. Luc Sculpture Studios also has some in-house supplies such as paper, pencils and erasers that are available for us to use in class.

Paper

• SketchBook, coil bound. My suggestion is either Canson XL Mixed Media (Blue Cover) or Robert Bateman Sketchbook as the paper has a good ‘tooth’ that is excellent for many techniques and results.
• 1-2 single sheets of a mid-tone pastel paper ie. Mi-Teintes 9”x12” grey of your choice.

• General’s Charcoal Pencil 6B  
• General’s White Charcoal Pencil
