Art Supplies, Journals, Courses and More
Here are some of my go-to art favorites that I often use in my online courses, in addition to my favorite sources of inspiration.Favorite Art Courses
Bloom True with Flora Bowley
This is the e-course that opened my eyes to the world of Intuitive Painting, and literally changed my life forever. I cannot recommend Flora and her teaching philosophy enough!
Favorite Art Supplies
Canson Mixed Media Journal
A good journal for mixed media and watercolors.
Strathmore Watercolor Journal
My first art journal that I still enjoy using in both the 9×12 and 5×8 sizes.
Prismacolor Colored Pencils
These pencils glide on smoothly and are high quality.
Matte Mod Podge
I prefer the matte because it doesn’t dry with a shine. Use this for gluing papers down.
Caran d'Ache Neocolor II Water Soluble Pastels
You can use as crayons or add water to make watercolor paint. I especially love bringing these when traveling.
Washi Tape
These tapes come in many colors and designs. They can be removed without damaging the paper and make great additions to art journals.
Shiva Oil Paintstiks
An easy and less messy way to add oil paint to your artwork.
Faber-Castell Gelatos
Great for mixed media. These glide on smoothly and are fun to add to stamps. They can also be activated with water.
Golden Open Acrylic Paint
A great middle ground between oil and acrylic paints. These dry slower than regular acrylics but faster than oils.
Golden Fluid Acrylic Paint
Vibrant in color and meant to last. You can’t get much better than golden paints.
Golden Heavy Body Acrylic Paint
Thicker paint that holds its form. Great color and lightfastness.
Jack Richeson Porcelain Nesting Bowls
I love these for mixing paints, holding painting mediums, and also as photo props.
