Materials List for Acrylic Painting 
Instructor: John Holladay
​
MATERIALS LIST:
Paint brushes:

• a flat brush, about half inch wide
• a medium brush
• a small brush
• the more brushes the better....big brushes paint big areas and small brushes paint small areas...

Miscellaneous:

• rags
• canvas (remember the smaller the canvas the harder it is to paint) I would suggest 16 by 20 or something close to that.
• a roll of masking tape

Paint:

• a basic acrylic set will work
• matte medium paint: a big tube of white and black

or if you want to use oils – it must be water based set plus extra white or black
For paint colors, John suggests:

• red
• yellow
• green - (hookers green if available)
• purple
• thalo blue
• burnt umber or burnt sienna
• and any other colors you like
