Technique and Supplies

I was asked what do I use for my sketches on location.

 I use a soft pouch to put these items in. I have also pencils and such in there like some charcoal and sanguine pencils from Derwent.

But this is basically what I've been using lately:

2 mechanical Pentel pencils one for B  ,one for 2B

I like them because you don't have to sharpen them.

Factis  - extra soft eraser

Zig millennium ink pen          01        I use mostly this one.

Zig millennium ink pen          05

Tombow      light gray     N95

Tombow     dark gray     N55

Tombow     light blue     451

            I like the sketchbooks from Dailer Rowney with the hard cover so it can give you support when you use it. 

The size I use is 8.5  x 11 I like a bit bigger then what I need it for just in case.

           The watercolors I've had for about 20 years but did not use them much but now I am rediscovering them, from  "Schmincke"  it is a metal box and when opened it serves as a palette to mix your colors on.

             I use a very small spray bottle from Sally's Beauty supplies that I fill with water and spray what I need on the metal palette side of the watercolor box.

            I hope this helps and the only thing I can add is go out there and have fun. Take a ipod of sort to listen to music you like when your doing this. It can make a nice experience even more wonderful.
