ANN BAIN presents a mash-up of Carl Rohrs, Paul Maurer, Mike Kecseg, Gwen Weaver, and typeface “Hummingbird†from Laura Worthington (a worthy compilation).
SUPPLIES:
- Pointed Brushes – If you have a Pentel Colorbrush, that’s great. Otherwise, a nice watercolor brush, size about 3 to 6. For lighter work, the little Pitt Artist Pens are quite flexible and good. Ann found a ZIG Clean Color Real Brush on Amazon – many colors, and says they are great!
- ‘Juicy’ brushes: Chinese ones to experiment with, also Winsor Newton Watercolor Markers.
- Practice paper – large-ish, 11 x 17†or so newsprint. Bring some old newspapers for large brush practice. Canson (or other) Marker pads for more controlled work.
- Inks: Sumi, Higgins, any black ink you feel comfortable with (acrylic is not recommended).
- And if you have any: a Papermate Inkjoy gel pen, colored pencils or markers.
TIME: 9:30AM to 12:30PM with a snack break in between (probably bananas).
