There are many places you can find your painting supplies. Local craft and artist supply stores will have many of the supplies you are looking for. When you want it to come to you, there is always the Internet. You need to compare prices when shopping online for your paint supplies.
There are so many things you will want to get. It will be like a kid in a candy store to look at all the wonderful items for sale. It is best when you are first starting out to save some money and purchase student paints. This will allow you to become with the different mediums without breaking your wallet. You can build up your stock a little at a time. The paints actually go a long way. You just have to become familiar with your paints to understand thinning and liquefying. Very few times will you use a paint straight out of the tube without mixing it with another color and some turpentine, linseed oil, or terpenoid.
The oils or additives also act as an aid in drying the oil paints. You do not need to worry about this if you are using acrylics. They are designed to dry quickly. An amusing note of interest is what your tubes of paint will go through when painting.
You may think this will never happen to you. It happens to all of us all the time. You just have to get used to it.
