I get asked all the time about the supplies I use, so I thought I'd list a few of my favourite supplies...
Let's start with paper. Inks look best on synthetic paper because the inks sit on top and are not absorbed.
Paper...
I have used Yupo Paper from the very beginning, but recently, I have been working on Nara paper and I like it too! I find Nara paper is a little more forgiving if you have to wipe it clean, but it's also more costly. And I haven't tried Craft Plastic yet, but a friend just told me how great it is and that it's less expensive.
Inks...
Ranger Inks - here's a set of 18 different colours. I use Ranger inks the most.
Copic Ink Refills like this one. I use these a lot, but they are more expensive.
Pinata - here's their intro set - It's bright :) and when you dilute these in blending solution or alcohol, they go along way.
Nara has also recently put out a line of inks, which I have not yet tried. They look very bright too. If you buy these, please let me know what you think of them.
I also have a few Brea Reese inks as well.
Brushes... A set of Rounds is all you need to get started or these.
This is a good collection of supplies with which to start! Happy Painting!
