[Tahn]

Hi, probably asked alot, but I wanna try out W&N. Does any one know a good online store at cheap prices? Thanks.

in the art dept.

WH Smiths you say? Now there\'s an Idea. I live near 2 of them! And have a £5 voucher for stuff instore. Not sure if its just books, but worth a check. Thanks James.

I\'ve seen several recommendations for these guyshttp://www.aswexpress.com product is cheap enough but high shipping. This company has better ship rates and comparable prices especially for VIP memberships BUT they appear to only ship within the States. I\'ve seen them on Ebay as well. Hope this helps.

As funny as it sounds... in US it is Amazon.com
at least for online purchases almost nothing beats them when you factor shipping and handling in. I asume (may be incorrectly) that amazon opperates in UK too

Easy answer is an art store. I got mine in Glasgow. But thats full of art students.

(some f which are rather fetching might I add!)

Thanks for your replies guys. I\'m gunna use Ken\'s Art suplies though.

Good choice, they have the series 7 on offer 30%-40% off. cost less than $30 the stuff i bought as quoted above.

Thanks again. I\'ve picked up a Winsor and newton Series 7 size 00 and 1 (might change it to size 0 and 1), Liquitex flow aid, and a brush cleaner and preserver. Not to bad for £18.56!

Fly on over to Halifax, Nova Scotia (Canada) and you can get W&N Series 7 for 50% off at Loomis Art Store. I just bought a new size 0 and 1 for less than $20cdn tax included.

I\'d go for 0 and 1 matey! 00 is veeery tiny!
