Due to how popular the Infinity crayon sets of 12 have been, we now carry sets of 24, and some chunkier ones for smaller hands and better grip.
These are fabrics non sharpening crayons that last ten times longer than traditional pencil crayons. (They aren’t just for kids either! 😉)

Don’t focus on what you’ve done wrong, and try to look at the bigger picture of all the things you’ve learned so far.

We had such a wonderful morning yesterday painting en plein air in the surroundings of the stunning Broughton Castle
Helped by the sunshine and the cake from the tea room, everyone did a wonderful job (for some it was their first time painting outdoors).
Many thanks to the Fiennes family for your hospitality and allowing us to paint your wonderful home.

This week is Small Business Week, and we are proudly part of it.
Try hard to support your local small businesses, skip Amazon, Temu and Shein, and look at what you have available in your own town, or support the smaller businesses you enjoy the content of online (like us).
Although we have a lot of followers on social media, we truly are a small British business, owned by Barry, with Jacqui running our little shop, and Becci helping out some Saturdays.
We have no social media content manager, no website designer, no accountant, no team of people to help or advise business strategies It’s just us, and we’d love it if you could support us ☺️
It’s becoming harder each year to operate a retail business with the rise of online sellers from countries miles away enveloping every corner of the retail world. People are choosing convenience over community and small businesses are suffering as a result.
We hope that this week you will do your best to help boost your local economy and support the towns you do have to be the towns you want!
If you can’t visit us in person or money is tight, then browse our website, buy a £1.50 art lesson recording, or buy one of Barry’s £5 lesson demonstration paintings.
Thank you for your support. We wouldn’t be here without you.
