Choosing art supplies

When choosing art supplies such as drawing or sketching pencils or paints, one needs to consider many things.

Things to consider:

1. Artistic level: beginner, intermediate, or advanced
2. Budget
3. Quality

I'll explain each in depth below:

Artistic level

Begineers are people who are just starting out and either have a mad passion about drawing and can already draw or are the people who want to draw but can't really draw.

Either way, a beginner needs to focus on honing their skills (which any level artist needs to do). They need to master the various basic steps of drawing.

They need to practice sketching, shading, and learning their tools.

Beginners should'nt really bother spending hundreds of bucks on the professional level colored pencils or markers but should start with the art supply they can find in any store with an art section.

Good starter tools for beginners are: student grade colored pencils, drawing pencils that range from HB to 8B (i'll explain later), plain computer paper, and a decenly priced skecthbook.

Budget

This is how much you afford to pay for art supplies because not every one can afford to spend hundreds on supplies when you can spend 10 or 20 bucks on student grade products and get both a large pack of colored pencils or markers and get a sketchbook too.

Quality

The quality of art supplies sometimes depends on the price. The more expensive option is sometimes better.
For example, in colored pencil that are more expensive can lay down more vibrant color and has a creamier and smoother consistency.

However, student grade supplies can be just as good.

Remember: An artist's tool does not define the artist.
