Here's a photo of my easel setup, showcasing a watercolor portrait of my grand daughter. This painting was created as a gift to our daughter. Using my slightly modified, large PaintBook from EdgeProGear.com along with Pure Red Sable watercolor brushes from RoseMaryandCo.com, a 16” x 20” Fredrix Cotton Canvas Panel from, ArtSupplyWarehouse.com. Prior to any watercolor painting, I apply a couple of layers of Golden’s Absorbent Ground (White Acrylic Primer for water media) onto the canvas panel to guarantee the pigments adhesion. I’m a huge fan of Winsor Newton Professional Series 1 Watercolors, as well as Daniel Smith’s Extra Fine Watercolors and I recently have enjoyed using Horadam Aquarell Waterscolors by Schmincke. It’s convenient to purchase just about everything needed for painting a project by ordering online from any one of these art supply stores I’ve listed.
