Canson two sided Bristol

We are now carrying Canson two sided Bristol.

This may not be exciting to everyone, but I think it is brilliant.
Instead of having to buy vellum surfaced bristol when you want texture, and smooth bristol for your fine pen and ink work...you get one pad of paper, and if you don't like one side of the paper, you flip it obver and use the other side. what a great and economical idea!

...and we just got three sizes back in stock!

Take a good look

Honestly, one reason we are taking so many lovely photos of the store,
is that we are looking to rearrange a few things.
We want to see what works, and make it even easier to find everything you need.

Check out our facebook page to answer the question:
What color would you paint an art store?
(The QUIZ is listed under the profile photo.)

Morning Light in the store

The sunlight early this morning was really quite lovely.

Most people don't get to see how nice it looks to see the sun really shining on these yummy art supplies...it makes them even more enticing.

Past the half-way point and into the wee hours of morning

It's just 3 a.m. as I check in here...

We've dwindled to a small group, but Jim Gorman is the first to have completed his 24 page story, and is getting ready to start another.  Yep, he's going to try and keep his original goal of getting two 24 page stories down on paper in one 24-hour session. That's twenty-four pages in six hours if he can do it.  Jim wins his pick of the Canson Fanboy prizes either way.


Rocky's Pizza arrived with fresh fresh pizza pie earlier this evening, which is a wonderful motivator year after year (Thanks John & crew!) the box of snack treats from Sweet Clover Market is a never-ending treasure-trove (I'm now hooked on orange & rosemary flavored pecans...)  Delicious coffee from Phoenix Books & Cafe has lasted us these past eighteen hours.  We tip our hats to you all!
