Selecting the right materials is crucial for a successful creative process. Here’s a practical guide:
Decide whether you will work with oils, acrylics, watercolours, or mixed media. Different paints, brushes, and surfaces are suited to each medium.
Cotton canvas: versatile and ideal for acrylics
Linen canvas: premium texture for oil paints
Sketchbooks & drawing pads: select based on paper weight and texture for pencils, pens, or pastels
Different brush shapes and sizes create different effects. Round brushes are ideal for detail work, while flat brushes cover large areas efficiently.
