  • Ruler and Pencils Tape – 1⁄4″ artist tape
  • Palette knife – bring 1 or 2 triangular shaped knives or a thin one – to paint squares with.
  • Brushes – Bring a few stiff brushes in different sizes – ones good for painting squares. (I prefer using a knife but a brush can come in handy as well.)
  • Paper Towels
  • Palette – to mix paint on
