Art 'N Glow

The resin and glow powders that I used for the space pieces in the YouTube videos are from Art 'N Glow. I have purchased from them before, but they were kind enough to sponsor the space pieces by providing the resin and glow powders. The glow powders are super fun. Surprising affects that are super cool. My favorite is the Neutral Red. The resin is clear, easy to use low odor, Sturdy, and well I'm a huge fan. It is a great company to deal with as well. They really care about their customers. You can find them on Amazon and their website is great. Here is the link to there website. And below that are links to products on Amazon.

Recommended Art Supplies with Amazon Links

Charlotte StrongComment

In this post I'm talking about some of the brushes, paints and art supplies that I like to use and providing links to Amazon. Occasionally, I'll post about products that I like with links for purchase. Here I am posting about Mont Marte Products. The kind people at Mont Marte provided me with their acrylic dimension paints and a set of their brushes to try out. I had already purchased all of their oil paints, and fell in love.

The brushes are superb. They hold their bristles, shape, and are amazing to use. The acrylic dimension paints where an experience. I mean it. they where an experience. As an artist, I have used every paint and medium there is. So it is rare to come across a paint that I really get super excited about. Well I get excited about all art supplies, but that is just me. These paints are super vibrant. The color depth is just amazing. I am assuming they do not have the fillers that other paints have. I am super in love with these paints. I've already purchased the larger set of the acrylic paints. I had to have it.
