The Nature of Drawing Birds II with Linda M. Feltner

- Notebook or sketching journal for taking class notes- Inexpensive White Drawing Paper or Sketch pad: 9x12 to 14x18 is preferred.- sketching pencils- Pencil Sharpener: battery operated or small hand operated (available for sale in the classroom)- Erasers: 1 each: kneaded eraser (grey), Click type white plastic eraser- Ruler with small, precise markings- Removable tape: painters BLUE tape or 3m removable tape- Small sheet of white foam core board or stiff, lightweight white paperboard- Watercolor Paper: 140 lb., Cold Press. Good quality paper, such as D-Arches, Fabriano, or Sennelier.Student grade paper (like Canson) is acceptable for warmups only. If the paper is in a block, that willeliminate the need for a stiff board and tape for individual loose sheets.

- Tracing paper 8 1/2 x 11 OR 9 x 12 pad OR roll of 12 bumwad (bumwad is a roll of tracing paper)

- Containers for clean water, paper towels, palette- Watercolors, and optional watercolor pencils. Bring traditional, simple materials. Bring what you have.- Pigments. At a minimum: primary colors to make neutrals, or your favorite neutrals.- Brushes: round medium (#6 or #8) and a pointed round small (#4) and a tiny (#00-000). (My personalfavorites are the #8 Silver Black Velvet 3000s Round, for a general use brush- and the #4 Sceptre GoldII from Winsor Newton-- just as a suggestion)

Miscellaneous:- Digital Camera recommended
