Art Supplies!

Image
If, like me, you enjoy nerding out on all things art supplies. this post is for you. It is  all about the materials I have on constant rotation for my art, illustration, and hand lettering work.   I do research before making a purchase, so I do not accumulate masses of art supplies that will ultimately go unused. By doing my homework and being mindful, I ensure that I only bring in what I need. While I take a minimalist approach, both by choice and necessity, the limitations have encouraged me to be more creative, and to use up what I have before buying more.  So, fellow art supply lovers, here are my tried and true go-tos (this post is not sponsored): Paper   I use both watercolor paper and drawing paper. To get the most bang for my buck, I buy 9x12 pads and cut the sheets to the sizes I typically use, which are 5x5, 4x6, and 5x7. Occasionally I use the full 9x12 size, though 5x7 is my preferred size.  Drawing:   Canson Recycled Drawing Paper, 70lb. To be honest, this is not my favor
