Here is a list of my favorite art supplies and materials I have been enjoying using this year. From watercolor paper to paints, sketching tools and other art supplies, I hope you find some new favorites too.
A relaxing swatching session of the Kuretake Gansai Tambi 48 Color Watercolor Pan Set. This is just a short stroll through the vivid and delicious Traditional Japanese pan watercolors from Kuretaki, they are perfect for professional artists and crafters.
A relaxing little Art Haul from Jacksons. I couldn't stop myself from buying some more of those beautiful Roman Szmal Watercolors, so this mini Jackson's Art Supply Haul has a couple of those as well as some water-soluble pencils (Stabilo ALL and Carbothello), Caran D'Ache Neocolor II, and a couple of interesting granulating Super Vision paints from AliExpress.

I hope you enjoy this calm little moth and butterfly ‘paint with me’ speed paint session. I was inspired to paint these guys from looking through a book I picked up at my local library called “Butterflies of the World” by H.L Lewis. It is an amazing book with a billion little images of colorful butterflies and moths which are great reference material for color combos and patterns.
