Live Painting with EttaVee: Groovy Flowers

Supplies List - 07/16/2022

Setting up your painting area:

  • Clean and flat area to paint

  • Water to clean brushes

  • Cloth or paper towels to dry brushes

  • Optional - Hair dryer for quicker drying

 
 

Canvas

I will be painting on small 9”x12” canvas. Feel free to pick up any size you wish!

 
 

Paint Brushes*

Ideally you’ll need a Filbert brush size that’s at least 1/2” wide. I suggest picking up this inexpensive set of 12 filbert brushes, so you’ll have options in terms of size.

*Please note that I will be painting on a small surface of 9 x 12, the brush sizes above reflect that. If you are painting on a larger surface, just make sure you have a large size brush, medium brush and small brush for details.

 
 

Acrylic Paints

I’ll be using a mix of paint brands Liquitex Basics and System3 Acrylics by Daler Rowney to show that you can create bright and colorful artwork using paints found at agreeable prices! You may use any brand of acrylics of your choosing for this paint session. Feel free to select any specific colors that you want in your piece.

Colors

  • Titanium White

  • Fluorescent Pink

  • Cadmium Yellow Medium Hue

Optional - If you’re going for a certain color palette don’t hesitate to grab any extra colors that you may need.
