Materials

Paints

For paints we will need my classic set.

I work with the French paint PEBEO. You can take paints from other manufacturers, but the shades may differ.

Below is the list of paints and their PEBEO numbers

  • titanium white25
  • lemon yellow01
  • cadmium yellow02
  • cadmium red 05/06/07 (any of them or all)
  • light ochre20
  • raw sienna21
  • pink37
  • madder50
  • turquoise38
  • cobalt12
  • ultramarine14
  • steel blue47
  • black24

The only color from the Ladoga/Master Class palette is Leningrad raw umber.

As you may notice, I do not have a green.

Solvent

I paint with pure odorless pinene. If you are used to painting with oil or a triple medium, that is up to you, but I recommend taking a look at my way of working on a painting.

Brushes

I use flat-oval synthetic brushes. From the smallest to medium. You can take a wide flat brush if you wish. I will not be relying on them. Bristle brushes will not be the main brush either.

While the course is being made other tools may appear; I will talk about them in the lesson, but they will not be essential.

Palette knife

I always recommend having 2-4 palette knives of different shapes.

Canvas

The size I will be painting on: 50x60 or 60x70

In the lessons I paint on linen canvases. You are free to choose the size yourself. It is worth going by the ratio of the sides.

If the reference is elongated, the difference between the sides should be 20 cm or more (for example 40x60 / 50x70).

Rectangular classic formats have a difference of 10 cm (40x50 / 50x60)

Squares or circles you also take according to the reference.

I do not mind if you move away from the given canvas proportions, for example if the reference is elongated but you have decided to take a square canvas.

It is always an interesting creative task.

  • Co-founder of the painting school "Izo Project PARTA"

Back in 1996 my parents took me to a children's art school. That was how it was done - children were sent to learn to draw. But unlike my classmates at the "art school", even then I had made up my mind that painting would be my profession.

After school I went to a college of culture, where I qualified as a "Master Artist". It is the place where they taught me not only to paint, but to cross-stitch, to knot macramé, to model and to carve... In short, everything you can possibly imagine in the crafts was passed on to me there by experienced teachers.
