As an artist, I have always depended on the common “art store” to purchase my art materials and supplies. The most common supplies are acrylic or oil paint, gel mediums, brushes, color pencils, charcoal, and canvas. Without even thinking about it, I personally would walk down the aisle of the art store and grab the art supplies that were either within my budget or least expensive. If I had a bit more to spend, I would treat myself to a higher-end item. Once you find yourself having to purchase art supplies repeatedly as an artist, you realize that you are buying products more than selling artwork. As artists, we are resourceful and can create with pretty much anything but regardless, options are always a plus!
​
During my career as a professional artist, I always had a love for the creative process. During that process, I had to learn how to hone my craft, create a budget for the supplies I needed to create original artwork, and last but not least, brand myself. One of the challenges of my personal art journey was obtaining the proper resources to build a strong platform which in turn would be fulfilling, inspirational to other aspiring artists, and lucrative. Being able to do what you love and make a living doing so is possible.
ONE ARRT gives a portion of the proceeds of all sales directly to specific educational programs and community projects that focus on the growth and advancement of ALL artists including fine art, performing arts, and visual arts.
