I had like $100 dollars when trying to create my first Art set up and I won best in category. It was a relief because I thought my setup was janky. Hefty tables. Buy some or borrow. Black fabric table covers. 8 dollars. Go on amazon and buy these little black table easels. They can hold very large or very small prints. I used lighting tripods to hold my large paintings. It’s all about how you set it up. Don’t worry about fancy stuff unless you have money to burn.
