CAI absolutely love my Sketchbox… I absolutely love my Sketchbox subscription! I've been a subscriber for about 5 months now and I have loved every box. I really enjoy the opportunity to try new tools, techniques, and mediums and love that Sketchbox provides higher quality products for these trials! I get to test out new things at a price point that I can manage and then, if I like a product, I know it is worth adding to my art practice. It's also a wonderful way to explore my creativity -- I get an infusion of new products, techniques, and ideas (via the YouTube videos that are super helpful!), every month and I find that it really invigorates my own approach to my art. For those living in Canada -- my Skethbox definitely doesn't arrive right at the beginning of the month but I usually receive it within the first week or so. This doesn't bother me as I live in a rural area so I'm used to late shipping but it also adds to the anticipation each month! I watch the new YouTube videos when they're released, get excited about what's to come, start thinking about what I can do with the new materials, and then rewatch the video when my box does arrive! I'm so happy I found Sketchbox!

GBBest art materials subscription box I've tried several art box subscriptions. By far, I prefer Sketchbox for the quantity and quality of materials and the video lessons online. I've gotten to try materials I normally don't use (like markers, powdered paint and gouache) and to try various papers as well. The premium box always has top brands but even the basic box is a tremendous value--I've tried both subscriptions. The website is a good resource--you can review past videos, you can see other artists' creations, and past boxes and supplies are also available in the shop. Can't recommend it enough if you love creating art.

GBI ordered 6 months of SketchBox for my… I ordered 6 months of SketchBox for my 12-year very artistic grandson. He loved the boxes and the results were outstanding artwork. I also had two communications with Mike, in their customer service department. His response was very quick and excellent. I am considering purchasing another series of boxes for my grandaughter.

GBI love SketchBox! SketchBox is amazing! Every month I'm so excited to see what medium I'll be working with. SketchBox does such a great job introducing me to new items I never would have thought to have tried on my own. The tutorial videos are such a big help too! Nikoli is the best!

GBOnly received half of contents I ordered a 6 month subscription for my 11 yr old son as his Christmas present, and knowing the box would not get to us in time for Christmas, I also ordered a past premium box so he would have something to open on Christmas morning. Imagine his dismay when we opened our very first ever sketchbox, and we only received half of the supplies that were supposed to be included in the box. Half! You can clearly see the contents that were provided vs the menu card labeled with what we were supposed to receive. We cannot do any of the projects taught in the online tutorial that comes with the premium box! I spent $35 (not to mention shipping costs, bc they do charge you for that too) on 2 markers, a colored pencil and some paper?!?!? I say save your money, and try a different art box. I wish we had! I sent customer service an email and haven't heard anything from them.
