Favorite Tool Tuesday

Hi Art Groupies!  Today is the beginning of a monthly post we're calling Favorite Tool Tuesday (or Wednesday or whatever day it happens to be).

What are your favorite art tools?  One of ours is a cool white paint stick called "Meanstreak" by Sharpie.  It's waterproof, dries fast, and is a great alternative to using white paint.  It almost feels like an oil stick.

Here are some examples of what I've used it on:
I used it on the bigger areas--the small white detail is a gel pen.
I like to use it in journaling!
Here is a bigger view...

What are your favorite art tools?  Have you used this one in any of your art?  We will be choosing one random art groupie to win a Sharpie Meanstreak!  Leave us a comment!

Happy day to you!
Amanda

    I've got to get one of those, we have chalkboard plates for pricing groups of the same stuff in the store and chalk does not work good, Joni keeps telling me to see if there is some kind of marker like paint...and here it is!
    great idea! neat uses for art too.
