Favorite Travel Art Supplies

I wanted to compile some of my favorite travel art supplies to help you on the road! Personally, I try to keep my supplies to a minimum when I am on the go. I like to pack light and be mobile. I also find that when I am traveling the best way for me to collect inspiration is through a camera lens, living in the moment, and sketching with few materials in my journals. When I return home, I take all this inspiration and then I work on larger or more complex pieces.

If I am traveling light, I will bring my camera, my artist roll filled with my pencils, micron pens, stabillo, gel pen, variety of paint brushes, eraser, glue stick and small palette with my art journal and a set of watercolors.

For a more extensive list, check out my favorite travel art supplies below. I would love to hear what supplies are your favorite and how you use them on the go!
