A couple of people have asked what supplies I use for sketching, so here's a quick rundown.


5.5" x 8.25" large portrait Hand Book journal

Yarka Professional Watercolor Set — I have a small Van Gogh pocket set that I use when I'm out and about.

Niji medium Watercolor Brush — I even use this at home in my sketchbook AND on my flower paintings.

Pitt Artist Pens by Faber-Castell — These come in a set of four, but I never use the medium — just superfine, fine and brush.

Pencil & Eraser — Yes, I usually sketch stuff out first, which I know some will see as "cheating". But then, it's my sketchbook, right?


All of these products can be found at Dick Blick, although I get them at a local art store.
