I’ll be adding reviews of the tools I’m currently using or trying out here and what I think of them.
These will include paints, brushes, pencils, etc. & digital programs. They’ll be added here shortly…
As an artist you’ll need a variety of tools…to get started out I’d recommend beginning with basic sets of pencils, paintbrushes, paints, charcoal pencils or sticks, erasers, drawing paper, canvas boards and wrapped canvases.
If drawing or painting is something you’re just getting into it might take awhile to figure out which brands of tools you prefer, but usually you can get a decent set of brushes, pencils, paints, etc. on the beginner level to use until you get more advanced.
I wouldn’t recommend buying the cheapest thing you can find though unless you did your research on it and found it to have enough quality to actually get the results you want. Usually there’s a reason it’s cheaper as I’ve found out…
Yeah, I like to save money whenever I can and I’ve learned when it comes to art supplies it’s often as the old saying goes…”you get what you pay for.”
but, then again sometimes you’re just paying for a brand name…
That’s why I’ll eventually get around to adding some reviews here…
To help other artists find quality products that won’t cost them an arm and a leg…

Want to Start on Digital Art?
Here’s what I’ve been using for my digital illustrations, drawings, and paintings…
The Wacom Intuos Drawing Tablet
Yes, it’s the smallest one, but I love it! Eventually I might get a larger tablet, but for now this works wonderfully!
