So i've been around several art stores looking for cold press board. What can I say, i hate canvas, always have and always will!
The hours of this shop isn't great. But it's deptford, not west London. Which is why it's the last place I gone to find my boards.
Needless to say, they were fresh out. but it's nice to have someone behind the register know what the hell i'm talking about. They were fresh out. But i've found something similar which will do for a practice run.
So for a shop about 1/3rd of the size of the big inner london shops, they actually store more of what I need then the big shops do. And the person behind the counter is an actual artist. Well... I assume he is, he knew what I was talking about.
Next month their getting some strange metallic board you can paint on. I'm dying to see what this is!!!
Great place! I will certainly return!
PS: prices are better than the larger shops! read more
