Preparation for the Course
Gathering Supplies
You will only need a few basic supplies to do the four guided art projects included in this guide. Look through your own art supplies first to see what you already have to hand and use those. For instance, you may already have some card stock and a good set of watercolor paints you can use.

You will need:
· Heavy white card stock or watercolor paper (8.5” x 11” to fit through your printer)
· A watercolor set and two brushes—one fine and one medium
· A small cup of clean water and a soft cloth for blotting
· A gold paint or metallic watercolor (for illumination)
· A pencil for tracing and light sketching
· Calligraphy pens if you want to include your own copywork
· The printed outlines from this guide
Once you’ve gathered your paper, gold ink, watercolors and calligraphy pens, print out the PDF’s onto your watercolor paper or card stock, and then you’re ready to to follow along with each of the guided art lessons!
