Welcome from Napa! I also would love to see your art. When I think of pebble art I think of smooth unpolished landscape rocks like you'd get at a hardware store like James said.

Support the RTH Store - buy stuff, suggest new products

Welcome from Washington state. If you're looking for smooth rounded rocks that don't need to be tumbled you can self collect them at rivers and beaches or buy a bag of river rock at your local big name home improvement store. You could probably get them at a landscaping supply or nursery too. I buy rocks to tumble from rock and gem shows near me. I also buy them online from reputable stores like Kingsley North or The Gem Shop, and Rock Shed, which turn out beautiful, but they are expensive and you have to tumble them to get them smooth and rounded. The vendor's market sounds exciting. Please share some photos of your creations.
