Rose Edin # 18 "THE BRUSH THAT DOES IT ALL" - For sale at all Rose Edin workshops

Note: I personally designed this brush as one that truly "does it all". For most of my painting this is the only brush I use. This # 18 brush with synthetic bristles is a unique size not otherwise commercially available . It is manufactured to my specifications of three ply English bristles and assembled here in the United States.

Two Inch (2") Flat (Hake brand suggested)

Small riggor brush for liquid mask

Paper:

D'Arches Watercolor Paper - should have rag content - acid free is best. I use 140 lb. or 300 lb. cold pressed. The student will need a 24"x32" drawing board, staple gun, and staples (to staple the paper on the board). D'Arches Water Color Painting Blocks are an alternative that work very well. I suggest 12" x 16"  or 18" x 24" blocks for on-location painting.

Palette:

The paint palette should have a lid to keep paint fresh as well as to enable the student to travel with it. Two suggestions are the John Pike or Robert Wood palettes.

Other Supplies:

Folding painting stool (for on-location painting)

Water container with lid

Staple gun and staples

Eraser (magic rub) and pencil

 

Plastic wrap and/or wax paper

Salt (in shaker)

Spray bottle (pump style - for water)

Paper towels

Liquid Mask
