Art Supplies K-5 2011-2012

2 wire bound sketch pad, 100 pages or more.

***I recommend #10 Penny Sketch Bond: 60 lb - 9x12 - 100 Sheet Pad. The penny sketch may or may not be wire bond. Penny sketch is great paper for watercolor, printmaking, ink, and graphite. As a professional artist, penny sketch is what I use in my studio.

2 watercolor sets.

***I recommend Prang brand. Prang comes with a nicer brush and the colors lasts longer and do not pop out of the tray. The brush will also work for acrylic and remora paint should the art department obtain some paints.

Crayola and rose art brands are poor quality and they just don't work for art class.

Please do not buy mechnical pencils for art class. Mechanical pencils are not allowed for art classes. Traditional number 2 pencils will be fine. If you would like to purchse a set of drawing pencils for you're child, please feel free to do so.

These can be found at

I'm asking for milk crate donations. These crates will be used to organize the school"s art supplies in the closet which is located in the lunch eating building.
