Went shopping for art materials for my portfolio today, that's all the stuff I bought in the photo. Finally got a big A2 sketchbook, art notebook, A3 sketchbook and A4 cartridge paper. I got a charcoal sketching pencil too, haven't used one before but thought it could be good for my portfolio.
I was about to buy a €5 60ml tube of white paint (rip-off) when I saw these. They are Reeves acrylic paint (70ml), and only cost €2.50. I already use Reeves paints and am pretty happy with them. I tried out the white and pink colours. The white is quite thick, which is good, but the pink is a lot more sheer. I think that it's just because of the colour. Anyway, overall I think these are really good for €2.50. There were lots more colours too. I hadn't seen these anywhere before.
Anyway I decided that I'm going to start my portfolio properly now even though there's only one week left of summer. I've started the mind-map section of the brief (finally lol) and it's actually kinda fun :P
