Not all brushes are created equal πŸ–ŒοΈ and if you're a watercolour artist, this one's for you 🎨

Natural hair brushes are an investment, but there's a reason seasoned watercolour artists swear by them. They hold water beautifully, release it with control, and let YOU decide how wet or dry your strokes are. That's the magic.

Synthetic brushes? Great to start out with β€” but because they're plastic fibres, they don't absorb and carry water the same way. You'll notice it when you're trying to load a wash or pull a soft edge.

So if you're serious about watercolour, a quality natural hair brush is one of the best upgrades you can make to your practice ✨

We stock a range of both β€” pop in and we'll help you find the right brush for where you're at in your journey!

A little update from our custom framing workshop πŸ–ΌοΈ

Fraser has been absolutely flat out behind the scenes lately β€” the workshop has been buzzing with an incredible influx of framing orders, and honestly? We are SO grateful for every single one of them πŸ™

Custom framing is a labour of love. Every order gets Fraser's full attention and care β€” from selecting the right moulding to ensuring your artwork is protected and presented beautifully. It's never rushed, and that's exactly how it should be.

With the current volume of orders, we do ask for your patience during the process. Good framing takes time, and we want yours to be perfect ✨

Ever wondered why "acid free" is stamped on so many art supplies? Spoiler: it's the difference between artwork that lasts a lifetime... and one that slowly destroys itself from the inside out 😬

Swipe through to find out why acid free tapes, glues and papers are essential for your art and framing projects! ✨
