Rude and racist owner…read more Been here for few times previously. Prices are not the best in town, the Michael's just a few blocks down the street has things cheaper but I thought it's a small business I could support. However, the most recent trip made me definitely not wanna go back. I walked in to a customer talking to the owner at the checkout counter. I didn't pay much attention to them as my mind was fixed on getting the supplies I needed for my project. The conversation got heated and both parties raised their voices so I stopped to take a look. I saw the owner pointed his hand toward the door and said "out, out!" and she angrily left. When I was done with my shopping and came to the counter to pay, he smiled and said, in his very limited English: "black people, trouble trouble right?" It's bad enough yelling at a customer, it's entirely another level of rudeness to make racist comment to another customer. Am I apparently better than the other lady just because the colour of my skin?

He constantly reminded that I could have gone online to do it. I explained that I wanted to confirm and place a hold before coming to the store. When I asked about the difference between the heavy body and the open lines, that seemed to set him off. He angrily shouted "Google it" then hung up on me. Won't ever deal with this store again.

It is comparable to other art stores. They have Speedball and Sheaffer calligraphy pens, too. There were also some good storage containers on sale, but I don't need any! The woman cashing me out was nice, despite the wailing child who was at it for five minutes by the time I got to her. I would go back again to explore some more, but this pen should keep me busy for a bit!

I came across Palette Art School coincidentally, so I decided why not try a class and see how it goes. From that first class , I knew that this was the school I was looking for. They teach drawing and painting beginning from the basics, and work all the way up to a very advanced level. Also, the classroom atmosphere is extremely comfortable and friendly. Everyone openly discusses their work with each other and there is no feeling of judgement. I'm very happy that i found Palette Art School and I would recommend them to any and all people with an interest in the arts!!!!

I had to get something printed in black ink and they were actually able to do it on the spot as they had the paper in stock and they were not too busy at the time. After 20 mins I was able to get my printed material. Sweet! I love not having to come back. It was nice of them to offer to print it on the spot for me. I dealt with Eva (the owner) and Margaret who was very nice and got it all done very efficiently. I really love their Stardream/Curious papers. It's a shimmer metallic and looks amazing on everything. Hope to upload a photo of the finished product soon.
