Cheap Art Supply Challenge - Under $5
Join Shell Presto DiBaggio as I take on the cheap art supply challenge using a 68-piece kid's art kit I bought from Michael's for $3. These are the worst color pencils and markers I've ever used, and we're gonna give it the old college try and make some darn good art with them! Right?
I'll also talk about how important contrast is in a drawing, why mixed media is the way to go when you've got limited funding, and what the real best buy to make fabulous art on the cheap is. Plus, I'll talk about my process with this piece, such as the concessions I had to make with the color choices I had.
Like many of Shell Presto's drawings, this has ties back to my work on her books in the Ascension Epoch universe. Learn more about the books I've co-written and illustrated, as well as the Ascension Epoch in general, here:
