Our sister site, Art Supply Test Lab, digs deeper into the materials themselves. Through independent testing, we examine how colored pencils, markers, pens, and papers actually perform.
For those who want to understand why their art supplies behave the way they do, Lab Notes offers twice-monthly articles about materials, techniques, and color theory..
We're still building! The Organized Studio and Art Supply Test Lab are both growing, with new reviews, test results, and educational resources being added regularly. Check back as we expand.
