My favorite watercolor painting materials (August 2023)

Nohelia Vázquez
I try to carry as little as possible. The picture has more or less what I would need to carry if I don't want to finish the drawing at home (sketchbook and drawing board not included). 
 
sketching materials
  1. Spray Bottle. This one is from Holbein and I bought it a while ago on Amazon
  2. Tombow MonoZero precision eraser pen with refill
  3. Vinyl eraser
  4. Mechanical pencil 0.5 and regular pencil H. The harder the lead of the pencil the fainter the lines will be thus easier to cover with paint or erase
  5. Brushes. At least a round mope one, and a flat acrylic brush for lifting
  6. Watercolor palette
  7. Acrylic pens, mainly a white one. These ones are size 1M
  8. Calligraphy nib. It comes handy when painting fine lines. This is how I paint fine lines with watercolor paint
  9. Fountain pen for dark shadows. I make sure to use water proof ink, I use Rohrer & Klingner
  10. Ruler. This one is Midori

The type of drawings I do with this materials can be seen here:
