| These are the
most basic tools you will need to paint.
Brush basin: Most painters need a container for water. A container with ridges at the bottom will help clean the paint from the brushes. Oil painters need covered jars for mediums and odorless turpentine they use. Palette paper: Every painter needs something to put paint on. Disposable palette paper works well. It has a waxed surface. There are also bubble palettes. Some use Styrofoam plates and some like a traditional wood palette. Paper towel or soft rag: These are a must for clean up and boo boos. For tracing patterns: graphite paper – light for dark surfaces and dark for light surfaces, tracing paper, pencil, tape, and stylus Soapstone or chalk pencils are for adding or fixing pattern lines.
