MATERIALS LIST:

​

Pencils - F, 2B, 3B, 5B, 8 or 9B

​

Erasers - 1 kneadable eraser - looks like bluetack except you want a grey one and I will explain on the first night other types of erasers you might wish to get.

​

Drawing Paper -  My favourite drawing paper is the Moleskine Art Collection Japanese Album. Now I don't suggest you rush out and buy one of these as they are expensive. The paper in it is

 165 g/m. This is a very smooth paper and means you can get fine detail in your drawings.  However, as you get more skilled you might like to treat yourself to one of these.

​

In the meantime, get yourself a Reeves Artist sketch pad, A3 or A4. These are 9gsm  and a nice smooth paper. We wont be doing large drawings so the A4 would be plenty big enough.

​

Tortillion, Stump or Blending Pencil. - these are different names for the same thing, a rolled stick that is pointed at both ends and made of compressed or rolled paper. They come in varying sizes.  A fine and a medium one will be sufficient.

​

I look forward to seeing you on the 5th of October.  If you have any questions, please email me at: kadira@kadirajennings.com
