April 18, 2008, Newsletter Issue #178: Paints in class

Tip of the Week

The paint you take to class depends on a number of things.
1. What brand is used by the teacher?
2. What brand do you have or like to use?
3. Is the policy that you must supply your own paint or do you use classroom paint?
4. Is the paint supplied for the workshop you are going to? If not you should seek clarification from the organiser and see if you must esentially have the exact paints on the list or if you can substitute.

Beware: there are some brands of products used for very specific purpose and they cannot be readily substitued...so before you substitute check first.

So..only take what you need...that is what is on the list. Aside from this...take some favourite mediums if you like them. I always carry easy float and Flow medium...just in case!
