Michelle B.

I came in briefly while shopping nearby. This is a stationary shop that is arranged beautifully by color. They have pens, pencils, inks, erasers, clips, papers, etc however!! I did not spot yearly planners (though perhaps this is because I came in during the month of June) or stickers beyond their free shop stickers. I did like how they sell individual clips for less than $1 as I tend to not use many so this is more economical for me.

The whole store is laid out by color

This is a neat little Art Supplies Store! If you are an Art Student or Teacher, come here with…read moreyour ID-- you get a discount. Everything in here is legit and you will be SO glad you found this little gold nugget. Skip any other art supply store-- this is where the Pros go. ;) The service was very easy going and helpful if I had any questions. Definitely a vibe for the Art crowd in this little store. It's a little store with MANY art supplies and niche tools, from pens, brushes to paints and canvases. A mini artist's paradise! The cost and value of all the tools and supplies in this store are fairly priced and even better for those who are students and teachers (discounts for them). I would recommend this spot to those who are serious artists and newbies looking to find the right art gear without guessing. Tip: Parking is street and neighborhood or the garage which is $3 for an hour. If you eat at Handels ice cream or one of the places nearby they comp your parking ticket which is cool too. Make a day out of it!

Blue Rooster Art Supplies is one of several independent art supply stores in Los Angeles and the…read moreshop has another location in Pasadena. Each year, Blue Rooster offers a Summer Anniversary Sale in July and they recently celebrated their 23rd year. [Parking]: Metered parking only. Our party ended up parking on Maubert Ave and walking here. [Supplies]: Almost anything Blick carries, Blue Rooster carries as well despite having a smaller retail space. The supply shop also carries premium handmade watercolor brands such as Stoneground and watercolor supplies occupy about 25% of the store, but they did run out of some specific colors for certain watercolor brands like Stoneground. They also carry Copic markers, Lyra Aqua Brush Duo markers, LePen markers, POSCA markers, Pilot pens, blank canvases, toolboxes, etc. Blue Rooster Art Supplies also carries more specialized brands of paper here. [Conclusion]: This flagship store has a smaller space and is less convenient to park than the Pasadena location and the Pasadena location also has a shop cat. With that being said, this is still a solid neighborhood art supply shop in Los Feliz.

One of the iconic treasures of the LA art world. It has an amazing history (it's the oldest art…read moresupply shop in Los Angeles), it has materials I've literally not been able to find elsewhere. Also, it fosters community, hosting monthly art exhibits which local artists can submit to. The prices are very reasonable. The staff are helpful and kind. Each month's exhibit has a theme, and there's always an opening reception. Unlike many art shows, Carter Sexton's shows don't ask for money just to submit your work. Only if your work is accepted and you choose to participate do you pay a modest fee ($15) which is a great deal, because the shop clearly spends a lot of time making placards for each piece with the artist's name and mini-bio, and then hanging the work. You can sell your exhibited work and/or sell prints of it. I'm so grateful for the community this place fosters!

Very disappointing experience. I placed my canvas order only yesterday afternoon , and by this…read moremorning it was already "finished." When I saw the work, I was shocked by how sloppy, rushed, and low quality it looked. This was not professional work and not something any business should hand to a customer. I explained that I was unhappy with the quality and asked for my money back because I could not use this canvas for my client. Instead of trying to fix the problem, they refused and kept saying, "This is how we do it," and that they already spent time, labor, and materials on it. They acted like there was nothing wrong with the work at all. What made the experience even worse was the attitude and disrespect. Instead of helping or apologizing, I was told to leave the store. I also took photos of the canvas so people can judge the quality for themselves. I would not recommend this place if you expect professionalism, quality workmanship, or respectful customer service.
