A carrying and storage case for artist's supplies including a tray-like base and a plurality of rows of receptacles within the base, each row containing a plurality of receptacles. The axes of all the receptacles are at an acute angle to the plane of the back wall of the base, the angle opening toward the top wall of the base. A cover, hinged or otherwise moveable with respect to the base, is used to close the case. The case is ideally suited to carry drawing markers, each receptacle holding one marker, and preferably the case contains at least one hundred receptacles. The length of each receptacle is shorter than the length of the markers to be carried, so that one end of each of the markers extends beyond the receptacles and can be grasped for removal from the case. The receptacles may be defined by intersecting vertical and horizontally-extending partitions, the partitions interengaging by means of a series of slots formed at one edge of each partition. The hinge for pivotally interconnecting the base and cover is seperable by lifting one of the base or cover with respect to the other, so that the seperated cover can be used as a support surface on which the artist can work. The cover may be a tray-like member formed with a pocket or pockets for accommodating additional artist's supplies.
