What to Bring

We request that students bring the supplies listed below to Stefan Baumann’s  Plein Air Painting Workshop

Painting, Baumann, PleinAir, Plein Air, workshop, Mt Shasta

A wet canvas carrier is highly recommended for carrying your paintings home! Raymar works well, but be aware that it only carries boards, not stretched canvas.

Necessities like tape, small plastic cups, and paper towels are provided for all participants. We will also have wax paper on hand for use as canvas paper.

You will need to bring your own easel! Stefan recommends bringing an umbrella as the sun can be intense around mid-day. Furthermore, he suggests a thumb (pochade) box for afternoons in Mt Shasta. Utrecht sells one that is quite small and reasonably priced.
