Resources

Art supplies are crucial to any artist to be able to easily obtain. Amazon.com is my favorite book store and I also purchase many other items from them. They also offer a nice collection of art supplies -- such as canvas. Click here to check Amazon.com out to locate reasonably priced art supplies with reasonable shipping prices. 

I also enjoy shopping at Dick Blick and Cheap Joe's Art Supplies. There are a number of excellent online art supply stores. Since I frequently purchase art supplies online, when they are delivered to my front door, it's Christmas over and over again!

I recently stumbled across Mastering Color by Richard Robinson in New Zealand, which is a great video painting course for any painting medium - oils, acrylic, watercolor etc - it's all about how to see color properly and translate it to canvas. It covers lots of in-depth material in a way that's really easy to understand. I recommend this for all painters who need better control of their color - and lets face it, most of us do! Here's the link to the website:
