I'd be remiss if I didn't give away one of my favorite sources af raw materials for artists: Sinopia.

Here you'll find all of the pigments you can imagine, and all the materials (and recipes) needed to make your own paints, pastels, etc.:

Here's a painting (with details) made with home made watercolor and acrylic -nice to have consistent pigment across various art media. Have fun! - Bob

(I've no finanacial attachment to them, but the place is run by very personable fine artists - and if you ever walk into their store, you'll drift back centuries into the old school).
