test session...letter to Kings
Dear Kings.
This year I have behaved very well and I like to bring me a little something.
•
. A box of watercolor paints, watercolors can also be tube??.
I could use to replace them with the Chinese that I have now
•
A blog of watercolor paper, my mom tells me it has to be at least 270 grams,
but I do not know what that means ... What about you if you?.
• Nor could use some better brushes me wrong, I have that are also of Chinese and
despeluchan my people slightly.
• ... . oh and do not forget a staedtler eraser type. The pens that I have not served
me ... so I ask and I leave gifts for other children. Other things I'll get in the kitchen
(paper, glass jars, plastic plates, got salt? ...) So nothing more.
But especially if you send him going very loaded one whatsapp Papa Noël
and bring it arrives so he can use before and during the holidays.

improving basic materials used
In order to clarify the letter of Francesco I bring you any recommendations that may
be handy for you to help small to write their letter to Santa Claus or the Three Kings.
These specialists serve our illusions, always take into account a number of important
principles:
1. Is not essential to start investing in higher priced materials, your own progress in
acquiring the art will increasingly require better materials.
2. Seller to acquire are specialized in materials for fine arts. Contrary to what may seem
they are more expensive and also tend to have good material offers a lower cost.
3. When there are no such facilities in your area, can also be purchased online.Requested
in an online store, you will pay on the amount and send it to your home within a
reasonable time period.
Papers:
There is a lot of "brand" and
each of them made of different
weights: (paper weight per
square meter, for example 185
g/m2, means that one square
meter of paper that weighs 185
grams),
or
textures:
finegrained
or
coarse-grained.
- fine grain , has a smooth surface,
recommended for such work very
drawn
illustrations.
- medium grain ,. has the least problems and presents watercolor puddles or "cut"
- coarse grained ; presents large roughness accumulates water and later watercolor to dry, it is
hard to handle when getting started.
Manufacturers will make "a good job": Fabriano, Arches, Talens.

Brands of widely differing prices: Talens sells multiple brands, Winsor & Newton and
Schmincke among others will fit your needs.
Each color has a name and number, and have the peculiarity that indoors Talens each
color has the same number, both marketed under the brand Rembrandt (more
expensive) or under the name Van Gogh (cheaper).
Brushes:
There is a lot of "brands" that market. And the acquisition depends more on what you
can spend and the type of paint you're going to make that trademark issue.Brands of
widely differing prices: Winsor & Newton, Talens that also sells multiple brands,
etc.. Personally I would recommend Van Gohg maintaining good value for money.
not go into details because of the large amount of price, quality and
brand, just a tip:
buy the best brushes you can afford.
