I usually get everything I need from the HobbyLobby just up the road from me, but I've been checking out a bunch of catalogs lately. Just wondering who you all use. Which is most affordable. So on. Since I hurt my knee, money is getting tight and I sure wanna find something cheaper and maybe get some good deals here and there. HobbyLobby can get pretty high on some things and there are a few things they just don't have.

Any feedback would be great.

I buy most of my supplies online at www.dickblick.com at discount prices. There are also other sites that are used by artists on this forum, I am sure they will tell you about their's also.

www.jerrysartarama.com is another web site you might want to check out. I happen to live fairly close to one of their retail stores and the prices are , in my opinion, pretty good.
The online prices are even lower than the retail store but it balances out when you consider shipping costs.

ron you are right there shipping cost are something else unless you have a good size order. i live 30 miles from an art store, but there prices are really high. so you add the shipping cost and i get cheaper if order. wish i did live closer to a big town sometimes,
have been up to my neck in snow so haven't been doing any painting lately,tonight started on one though.

hugs vivian
