Waterproof Drawing Pen

A simple graphite pencil, chosen in 2B for its softness and tenderness. Don't forget to bring an eraser and a pencil sharpener!

This sketchpad is middle weight (120-160 g/m2), which works fine with drawing, but also with watercolor drawing (drawing + a few touches of watercolor). Its hardback makes it convenient when working outdoors. For watercolor drawing, it is not necessary to use watercolor paper, that is more expensive, rather thick, and whose texture can prevent the nib or drawing pen from running smoothly.

To avoid cleaning the palettes at the studio, we use disposable palettes (you may also bring paper plates or aluminium foil paper!). These work with acrylic and oil paint.
