MeiLiang Watercolor Paint Set
STRATHMORE VISUAL JOURNAL FOR MIXED MEDIA These are also some favorites of my entire family! Between the kids and I, we each have several of these going at once. Almost a library full! These are wonderful to sketch, doodle, paint, color and try out some new ideas and creativity.
FISKARS CRAFT KNIFE Because I do a lot of fussy cutting with my Cutter Bee scissors, there are sometimes places that I need to use my craft knife. This one is a favorite of mine among the several that I own!
STRATHMORE BRISTOL PAPER Bristol has been one of my favorite substrates to work on since high school. It’s smooth, thick and takes wet media well. This is probably my favorite type of paper to work on, other than watercolor paper.

SUMO GRIP ERASER This guy stays on my art desk every single day. I love it. Doesn’t smear, you can retract it easily and you can also get refills. I love this silly eraser!

FOLKART GLITTERIFIC GOLD PAINT Gold and gorgeous!!! This is the most beautiful and sparkly gold paint that I use on pretty much every single thing I do! I just love it and can’t say enough about it and if they sold it by the gallon, I’d totally buy it!

MR. PEN RULER This is the best invention! I love using this Mr. Pen Ruler that you can bend into so many shapes and directions. It’s a great tool to keep in your art studio!

PRISMACOLOR COLORED PENCILS I’ve used this brand since high school and would never use another! Colorful, bright and creamy pencils that allow you to make such beautiful shading.

ARTEZA TWIMARKERS These markers pack a punch and have gorgeous and bright colors!

WHITE SIGNO PEN These pens are awesome to add whimsical doodles to your artwork!

ARTEZA GOUACHE Gouache is so much fun to play around with because it’s a mix between watercolor and acrylic. I love this set and it’s pretty cost effective. Tons of colors to select from and the ability to layer on top of each other to make really colorful designs.

CUTTER BEE SCISSORS If you do a lot of paper crafts and fussy cutting, these are for you! Total precision and comfortable grip. I use these daily!

DERWENT INKTENSE WATERCOLOR PENCILS These are by far my favorite watercolor pencils. I love the Inktense ones because the colors are super vibrant. I’ve found that these are by far my favorite watercolor pencils when I’ve compared them to other brands. And they come in a variety of sizes so you can find a tin that fits your budget.

UNIBALL VISION BLACK PENS (FINE) I think I buy these by the caseload! These are by far my favorite black waterproof pens! Wanna know why? Because the tip is metal! I am tough on pens and push on them hard when I draw and doodle. Having a metal nib makes the pen last sooooo much longer!

WATERCOLOR PAPER I love this watercolor paper from Strathmore. And with so many sizes, I think I’ve got a closet full of watercolor pads in my studio!

DANIEL SMITH WATERCOLORS These are some of my favorite watercolors to use in my art. Available as a palette and also as tubes, they’re definitely not cheap but worth an investment.

Love the colors of these beauties!
3M C314-BLK Washi Tape
Staedtler Mars Latex-Free Eraser

For the price, these watercolors are fab-u-lous! I love them!
Strathmore Visual Watercolor Journal

FRENCH CURVE SET This set is fabulous! I love all the tools that come in it and keep them close by on my desk to help me with shapes and designs for many of my journal pages.
ARTISTRO Watercolor Paint Set I’ve recently just tried this set out and for the money, it’s great, especially if you’re new-ish at watercolor painting. Doesn’t break the bank, has an array of lovely colors and the quality is a thumbs up. I’ve done up a review video on YouTube if you’d like to check that out.
2oz/50ml Small Spray Bottles
Faber-Castell Clic & Go Portable Water Cup with Brush Holder
STRATHMORE MIXED MEDIA HARDCOVER JOURNAL If you’re looking for a hardcover journal, this one is stellar! Nice thick pages that drink up wet media and make everything more vibrant and gorgeous! I must have a zillion of these that I’ve filled up in my studio. Definitely my go-to.
20 Pcs Paint Brush Set

FABER-CASTELL PITT ARTIST PENS BRUSH These brush markers are a little more on the pricey side but if you’re looking to make a sound investment in your art supplies, these are it!
