5 Art Supplies I Couldn't Live Without

As my art supply collection grows bigger by the week, I thought now would be a good time to reflect on the materials I really couldn't live without. If I could only use 5 supplies from now on, they would be these!

'I literally have no imagination' thanks for saying that, because I'm exactly like that too. I thought I was quite alone in that corner 😂 thanks for your list. I also love my Polychromos and my Ikon sharpener. I'll try the Bristol you showed 😊

[@dijosephine9556]

Hi Gemma. Good to hear you say you have no imagination and need a reference photo . I also have that problem. Great tutorial.👍❤️

[@bethmegansmith4642]

Hi Gemma, thank you so much for this video. I am new to drawing/colouring, and really appreciate a smaller outlay than what my brain is telling me I need to spend to set up.

[@agold1702]

Wonders tips and suggestions. Thanks!

[@Bec888B]

Gemma, you've made me shop whilst watching your video hahaa!!! Thanks for the great information 🙂

[@ashleyartus1193]

Love your advice. So so good. X

[@fuzzydragons]

yeah could never give up my polys for other pencils

[@gbtpsotf]

Hi Gemma - fantastic videos with some great hints and tips! Quick question for you - I use polychromos and I LOVE them - however I find the metallics a bit disappointing both in usage and choice of colours (3 as far as I know!) - any tips for using them and also any tips for good metallic oil based pencils?

[@renee1292]

Question--I'm a beginner to colored pencil. I hear that you need a toothed paper in order to build layers, how does Bristol Board work since it's smooth. Thank you for your help.

[@rokess5053]

Same question.

[@martina913]

Very valuable tips. Thank you. Do you print out your reference photos or do you draw directly from your pad?

[@GemmaChambersArt]

I'm iPad all the way for reference photos - I love being able to zoom in to the section I'm working on to see all the detail

I love art, been drawing all my life, but now trying to perfect everything. I'm certainly not as good as I want to be🙄. I have gone from paints and not good with pastels. Have decided to put my time and money into colored pencils. Now that I'm retired, I have no excuse. can you give more tips on blending and do you sell dvd instruction?

[@GemmaChambersArt]

We all have room for improvement! I hope you enjoy the hobby 😀 Take a look through the other videos on my channel, I've made lots of videos about layering and blending.
