Back To School Shopping List for A College Freshman Art Student

Hi guys I went to RISD a few years back but I do remember looking up this question. if you're not going to college just yet but are interested in art, it could be super useful to get comfortable using the tools/mediums below. even though i know most teachers give a materials list the first day, i needed to be prepared way ahead of time because of my anxiety. in my case, i was told id get a list in person, but walking in with an empty bag just felt wrong to me lol??? i ended up bringing a couple things, but missed a few vital essentials so here's a list of everything that i can think of. read to the end for my wagon epiphany that i think all art students should adopt (if they havent already)

-a notebook or planner (lined). some professors will hit you with extremely important info right away and wont always tell you to write down what they're saying but 90% of the time its important stuff you dont wanna miss

-a sketchbook. this can help if they throw a quick exercise at you and you have to write/draw something quickly. i blanked and didnt bring a sketchbook from home (because i was told id need to get certain types according to the teacher's specifications) but looking back idk why i didnt?? first days are hectic. actually the first week lol. anyways there were single sheets offered but honestly having your own right off the bat helps for organizational purposes, saves time, and IF YOU'RE LIKE ME, prevents the need to get up in front of everyone

-writing utensils. I'd recommend a nice pen and a set of drawing pencils (doesn't have to be anything crazy cause your teacher will most likely request that you buy more advanced/specific tools later on)

-headphones. every teacher is different, but usually art students will be given little tasks to work on during their first day in class at college. I was not clever enough to remember to pack my headphones, and the silence in a room full of focused art students can be especially unnerving when you're nervous. Hearing a student's questionable music taste can be equally unnerving, so make sure to pack those.

-snacks/drinks. this is kind of a branch off of the last one, cause again it can get sooooo quiet in these classrooms/studios. Pack snacks to prevent belly grumbles. I have heard it happen to many people in my classes and i am a victim as well. stay ready

-sunglasses. seems trivial but super important because you'll probably be walking around outside a lot your first day. this is the typical college commute, up down and around the streets.

-MONEY. I AM GOING TO PUT THIS IN ALL CAPS BECAUSE THIS WAS BY FAR MY BIGGEST MISTAKE LOL. UNFORTUNATELY, STAY STRAPPED WITH CASH OR CARD BCUZ! SOME OF THOSE ART SCHOOL PROFESSORS ARE A LIL BOUJEE AND WILL SEND U RIGHT TO THE CAMPUS ART STORE DAY ONE. It was very overwhelming for me, and some might think its common sense but idk my entire school career you always get some time after school to buy that stuff. they really sent us shopping ten minutes into class so be aware or look broke like i did.

Other than that, all the stuff you'll have to potentially purchase that day will be specified by the teacher. If you're worried about getting the wrong thing, don't be. The students get to go together and the teacher gives very specific details about the products to buy, which the campus store workers are well aware of. Off the top of my head, i remember being sent to get materials for a few different classes throughout the day. I'll list them here without the brand specifics (1. cause i dont know and 2. cause it may not match what your teacher will want anyway) just to give you a general idea.

-large ruler, metal, 1 yard (3 ft)

-clear plastic t-shaped ruler for drawing

-sketchbooks, drawing pads (of all sizes)

-a large portfolio (looks like a gigantic black totebag for big art papers)

-sewing kit

-string

-muslin fabric

-ink pens

-drawing pencils, different sizes

-drawing charcoal

-white paper drawing blender, a good eraser

-a toolbox for the drawing materials

-gouache paint

-brushes, pallets

-oil paint crayons

-a tool box

-ink pens like harry potter

That's pretty much it. If you'd like to grab some of these things before hand it should be fine, but for the most part id stick to waiting just to be safe.

Also a side note: I was a commuter so i could run home and grab my materials collected over my entire life but not every student is this lucky and some of their homes are thousands of miles away. if ur a traveling bird like them, it could be very VERY useful to pack some cool materials and tools like idk holographic paper or a jar of crystals because CAMPUS ART STORES ARE VERY EXPENSIVE!!!!

Also....... i know it sounds a little ridiculous but there were many many times i wished i had bought a wagon to transport things around campus. imagine me with a like 4ft portfolio bag the size of my body, a pencil toolbox, another toolbox for actual tools, my backpack, any projects i may have brought, a coffee if i am holding one??? and god forbid its a rainy day and i needed my umbrella lol.. it looks & feels difficult anyway trying to lug all the stuff art school requires.. so thats just some food for thought. Imagine a cute pink wagon?!??

anyways thats a wrap, have a lovely school year artists!

Day 224 of 365-Thursday-Back To School Supplies

At Walmart I see all the back to school supplies in cardboard bins. I used to love getting my back to school supplies, the binder and paper and Bic pens in jr. high/high school. I still prefer a clear Bic pen in blue to any other pen today. I loved the tin lunchbox in elementary school with the matching thermos probably holding Kool-Aide. I loved the erasers and pencils and a new box of crayons!!…

When his mother suggested it, Severus knew it was doomed to failure. They had never done anything like this before, and the young Slytherin had the impression that there was a reason for it.

The first creak of the stairs. The first doubt. They were both coming down, he hadn't seen them yet, but he already knew the expression on his father's face. He didn't want to be here at all, he didn't want to hear it, he didn't want to see him in the robes of a school whose customs he had no idea about. But my mother thought it was a good idea.

Honestly, their conversation didn't go as bad as he thought. He even skipped commenting at the sight of a rat. They quarreled only later, when all the expenses were added up. He didn't interfere because what was he supposed to say? It was actually a bit absurd, but… It was impossible to patch up the holes left by potions. It wasn't just any hole, and he…

He really liked experimenting with them.

Maybe he should actually take better care of his things?

If you think about it, in his entire life, Tobias Snape had only seen his son in his school uniform a handful of times. Those few minutes when he and his mother returned from shopping, and she talked him into showing up, were the longest of them.

thanks for reading!

ID: a traditional pencil sketch of Jaina Solo from Star Wars Legends. She is portrayed as a young girl, about 12 or 13, she is sitting in a window, turned to the side, crossing her arms with one leg bent in front of her and the other hanging loosely of the edge. Her hand is holding her lightsaber loosely and she is scowling a little, like she's frustrated about something, and looking off in to the distance . Instead of her normal flight suit she is wearing a long dark shirt with a light vest and pants, and a belt fastened around her waist.

End ID

Baby Jaina, what's she angry about? (Probably the fact I drew her with a crappy pencil)

#pippa.png #star wars #star wars legends #jaina solo #jaina solo organa #lmao somehow my normal pen fell out of my bag so I had to go see what pencils were in the free art supplies section of the school library #my art #fanart #anyways at least pencil sketches tend to be more postable #even when they're on the back of old painting assignments #an attempt was made to make her outfit kind of jedi-y and also kind of Aldraanian-y??#i think any outfit with a vest qualifies as at least somewhat Correlian right?#i imagine it as a formal outfit or a semi formal one maybe?
