Notes on Sourcing: 

Most of the products used in this video are readily available in both the US and the UK. Below are a few UK links to help out:

Faber-Castell Gelotos kits: http://www.thecraftbarn.co.uk/colour-texture/paints/faber-castell-gelatos.html

Dylusions Spray Ink: Oyster Paper Crafts at www.oysterstamps.co.uk

Though I spent most of my time living in Bloomsbury, I prefer the expanded selection at the Hampstead location (Heath Street) of Cass Art. All of the following can be found there:

Stabilo Woody 3-in-1 Sets
Primsacolor Colour Pencils
Liquitex Freestyle Brushes
Copic Markers
Faber-Castell Pitt Pens
Caran D'ache Neocolor II Aquarelle

If interested in purchasing the Stabilo Woody 3-in-1’s in individual colours: L Cornelissen & Son, 105 Great Russell Street, London WC1B 3RY (020 7636 1045).

US Sources:
Stabilo Woody 3-in-1 sets are available at Dickblick.comAmazon.com, and at most JoAnn’s stores. However, it is difficult to find a reliable supplier of the individual colours. Dickblick.com and Amazon.com both carry a limited number; however, I have found several colours to be on backorder when I tried to purchase them from Dickblick.com. In the end, it was far less trouble to purchase a new set at JoAnn’s than to obtain individual colours as I had in London.
