Welcome to My Favorite Art Supplies!
I’m so thrilled to share the tools that fuel my creativity and inspire my work. When I first discovered mixed media art, it felt like stepping into a whole new world of creative possibilities. It gave me permission to let go of rigid rules and embrace the joy of experimentation. My art-making became less about perfection and more about curiosity—following where my ideas led and discovering new techniques along the way.
This sense of exploration still guides my process today. My relationship with art supplies shifts over time—some seasons I’m captivated by the fluidity of watercolors, while other times, I dive deep into the vibrant richness of acrylics. No matter the phase, though, there are certain materials I return to again and again—my tried-and-true essentials that are always within arm’s reach.
I hope this collection inspires you to try something new or rekindle your love for a favorite medium. Let’s celebrate the joy of creating together!
