I switch between different sketchbooks depending on the project, but these are my favorite sketchbooks I use the most. Sketchbooks are very personal, so feel free to choose what works best for you.
Blick Sketchbooks

Aside from the hardcover blick sketchbooks, I use this Illo sketchbook for personal practice!

If you checkout my TikTok, I showcase this pencil set quite a few times. It comes with multiple pencils ranging in size and hardest, and my favorite colorful lead. This is honestly my favorite art supply I've purchased from TikTok!

As someone who's still a beginner with acrylic markers, these are good for other's like me starting out! They're smooth and small enough to get the perfect amount of detail.

As a mixed media artist, sometimes regular paper can't handle the amount of material used on one piece. Watercolor paper is great for paint, watercolor, paint markers, or something smaller like pen. I recommend the blue cover just to keep everything ...
Watercolor Paper

Occassionally when I do my charcoal drawings, I go for these ones so I can have a range of color!

For oil pastels, my absolute fav is the Gallery oil pastels. If you want a super smooth pastel you'd like the Sellenier ones (however, they are pricier).
Oil Pastel Sets

For a beginner I recommend something more inexpensive so you can experiment with (from my experience, oil pastel is all about trying what works for you).

While this one is my ordinary pencil pouch, I use it to hold all of my needed art supplies such as erasures, pens, markers, pencils, etc. This is good for both school and convenient art!

Fixative is a spray to seal and lock in all the hard work you did! You can choose between the regular spray or matte finish. DO NOT USE INDOORS this can be harmful to inhale especially in a poorly ventilated area.

When doing watercolor, I like to layer with watercolor pencils to define details, add color, etc! These help so much as someone still figuring out watercolor!
