I used to buy most of my art supplies in the city, usually on my way back from work ( I live in Brooklyn and I work in Manhattan) but since the beginning of lockdown caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, I started buying on-line more.
There is one website that I particularly love for:
Its name, Jerry’s Artarama
Its amazing sales.
Jerry’s Artarama’s has been operating since 1968 ( I like that!) and its sales are pretty awesome. On a good day you can get gouache tubes and watercolor paper with a 40% discounts on regular prices. I am not sure how they do it but I find it pretty awesome.
They offer free shipping in the U.S. on orders over $45 so, again, quite brilliant.
They also have some great Artists Resources initiatives, with on-line courses, art contests (with prizes) and artists spotlight.
