Watercolor Art Supplies 

The goal of this page is to give you the same experience and knowledge you would receive if you were in one of my classes or workshops.
There are so many art supplies to choose from online or in-store. I want to demystify what you need to create a successful watercolor painting. These are tried-and-true watercolor art supplies I depend on in my studio and I trust for my students learning journey.  And as always if you have a question please email me at [email protected].

Just click on the name and the product information, photo and link to where you can buy will appear.

Scroll down to the bottom of the page to see my personal art book library and my wife, Marilee's art business books too. 

By the way, this is a work-in-progress page. It takes a while to link to all of my blog posts and videos. So check back often for additions.

VIDEO: Essential Watercolors for the Successful Artist 
To view the video on your smart phone turn horizontal.
Here's a video I created a few years ago where I walked the viewer through the Essential Watercolors for the Successful Artist. You will notice I no longer recommend:
  • A butcher's tray and slant tray. The MEEDEN Watercolor Palette has replaced it.

I also suggest in the video:
  • Single edge razor blade
  • 240 grit sandpaper​
It's up to you if you want to pick these materials and keep them with your supplies. But they are not necessary if you are a beginning student. Clicking on the name above and it will take you to the buy this product link.

The video runtime is around 11 minutes.

Dale’s three-day Abstract Patterns of Nature Watercolor Workshop was wonderfully delivered. He was very organized with special projects each day. His step by step approach really helped us to understand the layering process of painting textures, in the landscape. We learned various ways of producing textures using toothbrushes, scrapping tools, paper towels & spritzing water. 

Subject matter varied between water, snow, lots of trees, buildings, various grounds, and a sprinkle of flowers. He is very patient, funny, and thorough with his delivery of information. He does not worry about making a mistake, he just works it into the painting like it was supposed to be there. Many great lessons, Very enjoyable.

“I’ve enjoyed attending Dale’s art classes for over fifteen years now. His knowledge and skill with watercolors is exceptional. He's good at introducing students to all the basic principles; but also, to encourage them to try new things that may go beyond their comfort zone. Watching him do a demo can be almost magical. As a student I know there is always more to learn, and more magical paintings to create.”
