Turn homework tears to giggles with The Toymaker's Mysterious Math Carnival!

I love painting with this gouache by Himi. The colors are so bright and happy.

My Favorite Printer Paper

 

 
 

Winsor & Newton makes wonderful pocket sized watercolor sets.

These "Big handle, short blade" scissors are wonderful for cutting thicker papers, cardboard and craft foam stamps.

 

Who doean't love a new box of crayons?

What's your favorite color?

 
 

 

Blackwing 602 pencils are the best. I have illustrated several books with them. They give a nice dark line.

After years of dealing with fiddly inkjet printers that clogged and jammed I splurged on an HP all in one Laserjet. It was an investment I have never regretted.

 

I use this water-based gold paint by Lumiere all the time. It's good for painting on fabric and paper. It comes in other colors as well.

 
 

The absolute best paper scissors by Dahl.

I've had my pair for years and they work a treat. Dahl makes less expensive pairs that are nice but these are the finest paper scissors in my opinion.

Sennelier French Watercolors are professioanl grade paints with luminous, intense colors.

My favorite pen for inking is the Tombow rollerball.

The ink is waterproof so you can paint your drawing when you are done. You can also buy refills for it.
