Supply List

In addition to a tablet or computer with a reliable Internet connection and a well-lit space in which to work, students will need to provide the following:
1). Inkjet printer
2). Alcohol-based, gel hand sanitizer. (Purell brand works best).
3). Selection of different papers. Fine art papers, such as watercolor paper, paper for printmaking, mulberry or kozo, sized larger than 5″x7″ or 8″x10″
4). Brayer or burnisher
5). Water-proof work surface
6). Dish towels or paper towels
7). 10-15 hi-res digital images. Images should be no less than 300 dpi. Please size your images to 5″x7″ or 8″x10″. You will also want to flip your images horizontally, especially if there is text, so that the image is “right-reading” once printed. In general, you will have better results with images that have vibrant color and higher contrast.
