LILY’S HUGEASS I-USED-TO-BE-AN-ART-STUDENT-BUT-NOW-I’M-NOT GIVEAWAY

yoooooooo so here’s the deal. Once upon a time, I got a master’s degree in fine art. But a bunch of shit has happened since then… namely me becoming permanently disabled……. and because of that, I’m not really able to make art the way I could when I was a student. (I mostly work digitally now; it’s just easier on me.) Anyway, this means that I’ve had a shitton of fine art supplies just sitting around collecting dust! AND I want them the fuck out of my space already… so I am going to give them away! One winner will get everything listed below.

Pictured:

3 new or nearly new watercolor sketchpads 

2 new or nearly new oil/acrylic sketchpads 

apx. 25 partially used tubes of acrylic paint (almost all liquitex brand) in assorted colors

1 partial bottle of liquitex gesso 

3 partial bottles of liquitex acrylic mediums (one slow-dri and two gloss medium) 

6 gesso brushes 

a shitton of oil/acrylic brushes (assortment of natural bristle, soft natural fiber, and synthetic) plus 1 canvas brush holder. they are used but I took pretty good care of them and they are decent quality. (also sorry for the shitty blurry pic) 

1 palette/paint mixing knife (pictured with the brushes) 

1 set of partially used color conte crayons 

1 large tub of brush cleaner (I know it looks beat up but it’s actually barely used… sigh oil paint makes everything so dirty) 

assortment of willow charcoal

canvasmaking tools (2 pairs of scissors, staple gun and staples, paint scrapers and canvas pliers)

Not pictured:

5 new or nearly new paperbound sketchbooks 

2 new or nearly new wirebound sketchbooks 

apx. 12-15 small canvas boards (they’re kind of scuffed up but still very usable)

3 small premade canvases 

3 sets of small assembled stretcher strips (12 strips total) 

4 unassembled small stretcher strips 

small amount of unprimed/unstretched canvas fabric

1 small container of brush cleaner

assortment of graphite drawing pencils

Rules:

you do not need to follow me

likes count as one entry

reblogs count as one extra entry

winner will be chosen at random

I will pay for shipping to anywhere in the US

I will not pay for shipping outside the US (sorry about this but I just can’t afford it right now… however if you would be willing to pay your own shipping, you can still enter)

you must have your askbox open

you must be willing to share your address with me (hopefully that goes without saying but just in case!)

I would strongly prefer that these things go to someone who needs them, as in either a.) a current/future/recent art student, or b.) someone who otherwise has a strong interest in art but has trouble affording it. But since I have no way of verifying that, I’m not going to worry too much about who enters.
