Fantastic shop for art supplies (of the drawn/painting kinds). There's an array of paint types, colours, canvases, sketchbooks, pencils, tools, most anything you can think of needing for the craft! Staff are friendly and incredibly helpful too!

I'm astonished! I found every fine art brand I was hoping for. The prices are very reasonable, and the selection is obviously curated by folks who know the arts. I absolutely love this store! Can't wait to shop there again, the staff was knowledgeable and friendly too!
