Brushes: Get no less than 4 brushes--long handles. Get different sizes and kinds.
Better to buy medium to expensive brushes--cheap ones will not perform well or last very long.
Palette: Disposable 12 x 16” tear-off palettes are easiest to use in class.
Palette Knife: One or more bent palette knives would be useful

Rags: LOTS OF THEM. Paper towels are nice, too. Lots of them, as well.

CDs you would like the class to share
Foods/Non-alcoholic drinks for all to share
