CTC - Art supply question...

Post by angela&4boys » Thu Jul 30, 2009 7:50 pm

Hi fellow HODies,

I'm hoping someone can direct me a little, as I am not art savvy. I found most of what we need at the suggested Miller's Pads and Paper, but I'm having trouble locating the 1/2" and 1" flat watercolor brushes. I went to Dick Blick and was overwhelmed and didn't find anything after searching. (I know it's probably there somewhere, but I just can't find it!) Any direction appreciated! :D

Edited to say: I found them! I knew I would as soon as I posted. :roll: And for those who need them, here's the link: http://www.millerpadsandpaper.com/catal ... temID=2592

And btw, Miller Pads and Paper has everything at a very reasonable price. (I did choose the cake paint as opposed to tube.)

Angela,

I'm so glad you found what you need! :D I fully agree that the art supply hunt can be a bit overwhelming, so we tried to give specific options for the painting within CTC to guide your shopping for that a bit more clearly. I know that I, personally, need all the help I can get! :wink:

Blessings,
Carrei

I too had some trouble, but I finally found these... http://www.dickblick.com/products/blick ... flat-wash/

One idea Carrie could try is to set up a bundle feature with dickblick so that we can just add it all at once. I know that artistic pursuits does this.

Those look nice too, and very reasonably priced.

Thank you, Michelle. :)

I was thinking the same thing. I think Miller Supplies may do this too....I know they have several kits for Artistic Pursuits etc.

Since the CTC manual hasn't been shipped yet, where did you all find the list of supplies that you need?

Thanks, Daisy! I'd missed that before, as I guess I'd only glanced at the Intro pages and then forgot about that page being there.
