BRUSH WASHER
A good metal leak proof bush washer is a very good item to invest in. You will thank me for it.
For acrylic paints - yogurt containers with a kitchen scratchy ( this is a must if you want clean brushes.) in the bottom.
You do not need to bring solvent down with you. We will supply, and have lots. You also do not need to bring a medium with you as I will bring that down with me.
Retarder medium for acrylic. Its hot and things dry fast. This is a must if your an acrylic painter.
