My heart is to not have you run out and buy a ton of art supplies that you won’t use. I would love for you to watch the videos first and also use what you already have on hand. I will always share everything I use in each video but the beauty of mixed media is that I can use a yellow ochre in watercolor sticks and you can use it in acrylics.
