Sketchbook Series Supply Ideas
Treat this list as suggestions, this series it meant to be adapted to the supplies you have, but in case you're curious about what I am using here's some more info! Some of these supplies are my own brand, and some are Amazon Affiliate links that I earn a small commission from.

Mixed Media
In addition to watercolor I like to throw in a little mixed media. Here are some of the supplies I use often:

Sharpie https://amzn.to/3EVLggk

Metallic Sharpie

Magic Outline Metallic Markers - When these work I love these, but the brands vary wildly and even the good ones seem to have a short shelf life https://amzn.to/3EuB3WU
-
Acrylic gouache https://www.jerrysartarama.com/holbein-acrylic-gouache

Pencil - Any will do, but a lot of people have asked about the fancy one I have been using. It was a present from Nick and I love it! https://amzn.to/3Own1s

Thin tape I used I can't find the listing it's a 1/16 inch drafting tape
