Taking a Holiday Painting in KZN?
What to Bring and What not to Bring
We like to make your holiday as enjoyable as possible and to that end we have a goodie bag waiting here for you with everything inside that you will need to paint and sketch your way around KZN with us. If you feel you would like to augment the materials with your own thats fine by us bring it along but remember you will have to carry it too.
Some of the things you might like to bring are: Your choice of pen (I like an extra fine pen which is permanent and waterproof)
Sun hat
Sunscreen and
A backpack and
The camera
This you will find is very handy to remember the colours but don't click so much that you miss out on doing the all important - drawing.To get some tips for getting the best from your camera in Africa look at David Bristows
