Lesson Summary

"Daddy's Girl" is a two-hour art instruction by Debra Huse, filled with hot tips on painting techniques. In the workshop, participants will learn how to hold a brush, which brush to use, and how to start and finish a painting using thick paint. There will also be a short artist stretch session during the workshop. At the end of the workshop, we will visit with each artist. And you will have a completed painting that you can keep, gift, or sell.

To prepare for the workshop, participants can visit https://www.paintlikeapro.us/shop to order paint or brushes from Debra Huse Workshop Supplies. Debra's recommended palette includes Gamblin oil colors such as Cadmium Lemon Yellow, Quinacridone Red or Permanent Rose, Raw Sienna, Alizarin Permanent, Ultramarine Blue, Viridian, Black, and Titanium White. Optional colors include Gamblin Warm and Cool Grey, Huse Hues Marine Violet, Anchor Green, and Signal Flag Red Oil Paint.

In addition to paint, participants will need Gamblin Gamsol Odorless Mineral Spirits or oil for cleaning brushes, a metal brush washer container (medium or small), a small palette knife (1"), an easel, and a palette. Debra recommends the Debra Huse Signature Blue Edge Pro easel box, available at edgeprogear.com/paintbookstore/debrahuse.

Debra also recommends using linen panels instead of canvas panels for a better primed surface. Recommended panel brands include Raymar, Multimedia, Fredrix, or New Traditions Art Panels. Debra uses #13 Claussens Linen Panels. These can also be purchased thru ttps://www.paintlikeapro.us/shop.

Additional supplies for the workshop include tissue (preferably tissue with lotion for cleaning brushes) and Clorox wipes for cleaning hands and palette.
