I use OMS  for solvent and medium (Mona Lisa brand) Gamblin gel also works great for medium

 

Galkyd and Gamisol for oiling out (50/50 mix)

 

Gamblin varnishes- I like Satin, thin layers

Windsor & Newton Spray Gloss Damar Varnish

 

 

Brushes:

Princeton Flats and Rounds 6300 sizes 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 for smaller paintings

Princeton Aspen - same size, a bit smoother and softer brush 

Trekell liners

 

 

Panels:

Centurion All Media Acrylic primed panels, I love their Oil primed panels depending on prices. 

 

Palette:

Prolific Painter Day Tripper

              Note: I prefer having my panel separate from my palette – I stay cleaner (less paint on me) than with the box type systems.

For those who don’t have pockets big enough for their phones, this is a great holder that clamps to your palette.

Tripod:

Manfrotto,

I have a sturdy tripod due to the wind in southern Utah.  There are great priced carbon tripods that weigh less and that matters when backpacking.  There are many tripods to choose from, base your need on height, weight of tripod and purchase a good tripod ball head. 

 

Sirui 

I have been using this one for a few years and love it. Be sure and check the height.
