Washi Tape comes in a wide variety of colors and patterns and varying costs, but it is well worth getting a few in you art practice.


You can use it in your art journal as a background layer and other art activities


and as a kickstart to a new page.  Check out the video at the top for additional ideas.

My 31 Art Studio Essentials - Painters

Painters



The Video


I have been using Painters for a while now and they come in all shades, shapes and sizes.  They are single tipped and I mostly use them for writing or making marks on journal pages.

I think that they are great for marking any surface, but of course you need to test them out.  They are just right for my journal pages and will write on any medium placed on the page.


I would normally use them when I want to add additional marks on the page, and you can see below that playing around with your pens allows you to understand how you can utilize it to the full.

With one pen you are able to make a range of marks when you hold it at different angles.



This is another great activity for you to try when you want to just play and get to know your supplies.  Watch the video and have fun with what you have and see how you can use your supplies in a different way.

My 31 Art Studio Essentials - Pro-Marker Pens

The Video


Pro-Marker Pens


My Promarker pen set has grown,  I started out with the small set either 6 or 12 and then added to them over the years.  This comes under my list of essentials as I use them when I want a change from using paint and other supplies.


You get a smooth finish when using them and they also come with a blender that you can use between colors.  The downside that I found is cosmetic, they didn't come with the colors on the lid, and I have had to make my own, or purchase the stickers.

They also came with these stands which I didn't find very convenient as they took up studio space so I created a pen holder for myself from recycled materials.


You can check out the holder that I created out of recycled materials, and also take a look at the resources below.
