Suggested Materials
Oil paints and the usual equipment (brushes, brush washer, medium,  etc).
Panels or canvases (12 x 16 up to 18 x 24 preferred)
Bristle oil brushes as well as a few softer brushes of various sizes would be helpful. Some big,  some small. An inexpensive paint brush from the hardware store that is approximately 2 inches wide (not sponge type). Odorless mineral spirits or Turpenoid for brush cleaning.
Liquin or Galkyd SD painting medium, or something similar. 
Cotton rag (an old cotton tee-shirt is good)

The following are colors I typically use. Terra Rosa can be very helpful for mixing skin tones.  Bring what you are used to and if you don't have something I may be able to supply you with certain colors. Quinacridone red is a pinker red and I put that next to my purple to separate if from the cad reds, which are warmer.

I use phthalo blue and phthalo green sparingly as they are very strong and tend to become too prominent.

These are currently arranged on my palette starting with white in the upper right corner, moving through the spectrum counter-clockwise on my palette to yellow in the lower left corner.  (* indicates colors that may be more important to have)

I recommend bringing four panels or canvases that are 12 x 16” and up to 18 x 24” depending on what you are comfortable with. Two panels or canvases for Saturday, and two for Sunday. You may only use one per day but it’s good to have a spare in case you want to start over.
