A medium to large sized, long handled stiff paint brush, and a smaller one for details I use a size 10 flat and a size 2 filbert hog bristle brush for this exercise
Some blue, yellow, red and white paints, it doesn’t matter which pigments
You may need something to dilute the paint a little, use water or glaze medium for acrylics and whatever oil painting medium you like best for oils.
A stay-wet pallete for acrylics or a wipe clean one for oils
An easel or table easel to allow you to paint onto a vertical surface is important for these exercises.
