Packing Art Supplies For Travel - TSA Friendly

[@moma-b]

Taking a lot of art supplies to a trip and never using them? I don't know what you're talking about! Never happens to me. NEVVVEEERRRRR 🤡🤡🤡🤡 Small kit for every day use: one A6 sketchbook, one watercolor travel palette (12 colors), two mechanical pencils (0.5 and 2 mm tip), eraser, one fine liner, one waterbrush, one size 4 brush (included in the watercolor set). Big kit for any trip longer than a weekend: I take the small kit, plus: one A5 sketchbook for landscapes, some individual sheets of watercolor paper A5 size, one set of 36 colors watercolor palette, more variety in brushes like round and flat, dagger, etc., a tablet stander which I use as an easel on a desk, a light drawing board A4 size with clips, and a small folding seat for urban sketching. I have a dedicated backpack for only my art supplies, so I just need to grab that and go. And very often I only use the small kit during the whole travel. 😎

Lol! I love that you can relate. 🤗

btw: 500grams is half a kilogram: 1000g = 1kg which is equal to the weight of one litre of water. aka one bigger waterbottle that you buy in a six pack usually to bring home with you.

Thank you so much! Very helpful

I'm currently moving my whole life, so this was helpful. I like the weight in grams as my suitcase can be up to 30kg.

[@HelloItsDorothy]

Glad it was helpful! Good luck with your move! I know first hand how stressful it can be.

@@HelloItsDorothy Thank you! 🙏😁 I think just seeing that a few supplies can go a long way made me think that I shouldn't put absolutely everything in a crate! I can take some small things with me, for the next few months.

Hi, do you know if it is possible to bring alcohol markers to the airplane?

Hi, I have an art exam and i have to carry lots of art supplies to school but I don’t know how to carry them to school

What about some paints that’s acrylic or oil sticks and oil pastels like sennelier brand and Fredrix canvas roll pad ? Going to Floraida for my grandfathers memorial around may . SCARRY thing happened to my grandfather though but while I’m There I need my art supplies and I’m always carrying heavy things that’s not really necessary and stretched 16 x20 canvases . So trying to pack easy

[@HelloItsDorothy]

Sorry to hear about your grandfather. Sending you and your loved ones ❤️. For your supplies oil pastels or something in stick form would probably work really well for travel.

@@HelloItsDorothy ok thank you so much 😊

[@tesstess3371]

Do your tubes of gouache ever burst in the suitcase?

[@HelloItsDorothy]

Thankfully that hasn’t happened with me.
