Ideally, we would all have the same art tools in which to work with. Unfortunately some of us may have to improvise and use whatever art tools are available. Not a problem. Do your best, use what you can use. Here is a short list of some typical additions to anyone's AT-HOME ART KIT.
ART KIT COULD INCLUDE: Drawing Paper, Pencil, Eraser, Black Permanent Marker, Colored Pencils, Markers, Rulers, Scissors, Glue, Tape, Bag or box (for supplies)

Protecting your art is an important aspect of the art process. Included is a simple way to turn paper grocery bags into an effective Art Portfolio perfect for storage, protection and organization.

Each one of us has unique skills, challenges and access to art and the materials needed to create art. Be kind to yourself while creating art and improvise in the instances where you may/may not have certain materials at your home. At the end of the day, art is meant to relax and inspire you. Enjoy!
