Colored Pencils and Manual Pencil Sharpener
I recommend Prismacolor Premier Colored Pencils in the 12 Count Set (NOT new colors). These are available at local art supply stores, craft stores such as Michael's and A C Moores, as well as on fine through www.dickblick.com. Do pre-sharpen your pencils.
A small hand held pencil sharpener. Prisma pencils have soft leads. This is why they blend well and are recommended. They are chewed up quickly by electric sharpeners or even hand cranked sharpeners.
If you don't want to buy a set of colored pencils you may compromise by buying the following pencils only: True Blue, Canary Yellow, Crimson Red and Black.
Something Smooth to Draw on
The class begins with several shading exercises. It is helpful to have something to place your exercise pages on so that when you press down your pencil doesn't get caught in divots in the table. This could be cardboard from a pad of paper, the backside of your cutting mat, a manila file folder or magazine.
Adhesive
Either a glue stick or rubber cement. You will be gluing construction paper to copy paper and fabric squares to copy paper. Bring the adhesive you like best.
Art Book
Bring a book of your favorite paintings that have strong visual impact. This can be an art book from your collection. This could be an excuse to buy an art book you have been salivating over or you may borrow one from the library.
200 or more 2" Squares of fabric
We will be sharing our squares. The more you bring the more you will have to work with. When selecting fabrics to cut into squares remember to select a range of VALUES, COLORS, TEXTURES, SOLIDS and PRINTS. The more you love your fabrics the more fun the exercise will be.
Cutting Method
Fabric scissors or a small cutting mat, rotary cutter and ruler will do. We will be cutting some of the 2" squares into 1" squares and triangles as needed.

Colored Pencils and Manual Pencil Sharpener
If you already own a larger set of colored pencils bring those, otherwise, I recommend Prismacolor Premier Colored Pencils in the 12 Count Set (NOT new colors).

Adhesive
Either a glue stick or rubber cement. You will be gluing fabric squares to copy paper. Bring the adhesive you like best.
Magazines
Bring several magazines that contain colorful photographs. Magazines that explore gardening, travel, and interior design all work well.
3” Square Window
Create a 3” square window from a stable, opaque material, such as an index card or manila folder. You will use the “window” to help you select an area to work with from your selected photograph.
200 or more 2” Squares of fabric
We will be sharing our squares. The more you bring the more you will have to work with. When selecting fabrics to cut into squares remember to select a range of VALUES, COLORS and TEXTURES. SOLIDS work best for the exercises in this class. Solids are any fabric that “reads” as a solid, therefore, a hand dyed fabric would be considered a solid. Do NOT bring large scale PRINTS. The more you love your fabrics the more fun the exercise will be.
Cutting Method
Fabric scissors or a small cutting mat, rotary cutter and ruler will do. We will be cutting some of the 2” squares into 1” squares and triangles as needed.
