After over a year of carrying a curated selection of art supplies, you may have noticed that we are starting to have monthly sales. And that is directly because of you - our customer. By purchasing local, we are financially in a place where we can offer sales on a regular basis - woohoo!

Last month we had 20% off preprimed stretched canvas, masonite boards, and panels. This month is 20% off all of our instock sketchbooks, paper pads/blocks, fudenosuke pens, AND Pigma Micron pens! This also includes our highest end paper - Arches. 😍 Check out our front window display when you are downtown to see the full range of products on sale.

Most of us who work here are artists as well, so we know the joy of art supplies on sale. Don't forget to sign up for our emailed monthly newsletter while you are in and enter to win our monthly giveaway (about a $100 value each month). For those of you who have already signed up, please make sure that we are not in your spam folder, especially Gmail users.

We have recently introduced a new artist to the gallery - please welcome Ada Chung!

Ada is a representational landscape oil painter and a recent resident of Vancouver Island. Born and raised in British Columbia’s interior, her work is deeply influenced by the encouragement of artist parents and her love of wild places. There is a subtleness to her work that mirrors the vastness of the land - a true balance of nature in art.

There are currently four works available in the gallery. We hope to see you soon!

Our new art show is up for the month of August - a new original series of paintings by Marianne Enhörning 🎨!
