SUPPLY LIST!

 Hey beauts!

Lee Piechocki

Here is a supply list with links, so that you can fill in what you don't have. Let me know if you have questions about substitutions for any of these items. Note that these supplies are in addition to the base level requirements for a laptop with the Adobe Creative Suite (specifically Photoshop and Illustrator) OR a tablet with ProCreate.

11 x 15 watercolor sketch pad

Sketchbook (your choice)

Pencils (also your choice, but if starting from scratch this is a good set)

Gouache (I am linking to my preferred set, but if you already have some, or watercolor, there are a number of possible alternatives that I am happy to discuss)

Watercolor palette

Brushes (#3 round, #6 round, 1/2" flat suggested. This set works well)

Brush pen (this is my favorite, but there are many variations here as well)

Black ink

Optional: Other working surfaces, like illustration board, other w/c paper. Other drawing tools of choice (colored pencil, markers)

WELCOME, Students of Intro to Illustration, Fall 2021!

 If you scroll down, you will see that I have been keeping this blog for a number of years now. It's a place where I can keep tabs on certain ideas and illustrators and movements, and keep them accessible to new generations of aspiring illustrators like you. Feel very free to browse away, and do not be surprised at the possibility of dropped links, especially further back in time. The internet is like a proverbial river-- always on the move-- so if you see something that piques your interest with a broken link I can help you find your way to the good stuff. Looking forward to a semester of lots more finding and posting. Let's go!
