SUPPLY LIST
Brands are not important, but a link is included if you are looking for an "easy button" or suggested brands. I selected good but cost effective options. You can always upgrade to fancier supplies, but I encourage you to use what you already have at home!
- chalk pastels: white, orange, yellow, light green, dark green, light blue, dark blue, purple, brown
- charcoal/pastel paper: 8.5 x 11 or larger, any color but I use cream in the video (construction paper or any rough paper will work)

Not specifically, but you will need most or some sort of replacement.
