Q&A: SOME QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE: 

Q: BEGINNER: I’m a beginner, can I join your class?

A: Yes, the program is designed to learn basics while having lots of fun. And building on what you’re learning through the program.

Q: MATERIALS: Do I have to buy your oil pastel art kit or can I bring my own materials?

A: Although you can of course bring your own materials I have found over the years that the students really enjoy and get much more benefit of using the same art supplies that everyone else is using: Not just because of the colours and the quality that may differ from brand to brand, (I have a lot of experience with many of them and now use and supply you with the best student quality that is very reasonably priced) but also because there are so many varieties of materials that may give you an unsatisfactory result, which in turn may disappoint the new student who may think it was their inability that was to blame. 

If you like you can call me, Tanya Freedman to discuss further: (705) 778 5151

Q: NOT A SENIOR OR A MEMBER: I’m not a senior, and I’m not a member of the Havelock Seniors Club, may I still register and join the art classes?

A: Yes, absolutely, you do not need to be a member. If you’re a young student you may want to join art classes with me online or with other youths, but otherwise you’ll have a fabulous fun time learning to paint and draw.

Q: Do I have to come to every art class, every Sunday?

A: No, you don’t, but of course you would get a lot more out of the whole program as you’ll learn different things in different classes; like I’ll teach drawing and watercolours after we’ve learned the basics of blending and shading with oil pastels etc.

ART SUPPLIES & KITS

more details coming soon

MATERIALS

OIL PASTELS: (Kits available, see below) /
Heavy Weight Paper (various colours, the lighter colour, the better).

  • Oil Pastel kit available for $15 – great value and colours
    Kit includes:
  • Oil Pastel set of 36 colours, and
  • 10 sheets of heavy weight (multi colour or white oil-pastel or construction) paper

basic student art supplies

Beginner Level:

If you’re a beginner all you need are some of these basics to start enjoying your creative art fun.

For sketching or drawing: Pencils, HB, B2 and good eraser.

FOR OIL PASTEL CLASSES:

  • Oil pastels (ideally 16 in pack) I like the Pentel brand, which are very good value. I can supply Mary’s Oil Pastels (pk of 36) for $15.
  • Heavy weight construction paper or pastel paper in a pad
  • Tape – masking tape or sellotape
  • Parchment or wax paper (to protect the finished artwork.

ACRYLIC PAINTING:

  • Synthetic Brushes – three sizes of filbert and rounded brushes to begin with. Nothing expensive needed
  • Acrylic paints; I suggest any brand that is suitable for students will be adequate to start with.
  • Acrylics are, in my opinion, better than gouache or tempera. So avoid using those for acrylic painting classes.

WATERCOLOUR PAINTING: 

  • Any student grade brand will be a good start. When you get more experienced with how watercolours react and the different techniques, then I suggest you get a better pack of watercolours in full pans or tubes. I personally really like Windsor and Newton.
  • Watercolour Paper: I suggest you avoid any thin watercolour paper or any construction paper, and use 90lb or 140lb at the start . Then get the cold pressed thicker paper in pads (for better value) to really enjoy the more advanced tricks and techniques you will learn with Tanya Freedman.
  •  

BRUSHES:

  • Synthetic brushes: There are sets that are good for watercolour and acrylcs painting. I’d start with these: Large (water brush), medium round and small round. There are good sets with fan brushes included, which can be very good value.
  • I always remind students to look after their brushes after using them so they last a long time. As acrylics can ruin brushes if not washed off immediately after class.
