Bondgate Gallery - Art Materials
New In-Store
In February took delivery of a small starting range of Watercolour Art Materials and were quite excited to sell the first sheet of Arches Watercolour Paper withing 30 minutes of the delivery.
A few of our customers have been asking for this service and once I learn personal requirements I will be growing the range to suit.
Currently the Materials include : Arches 300lb Rough Paper, Arches 140lb Rough Paper, Bockingford Paper, Winsor & Newton Artist Quality Watercolour Full Pans, Winsor & Newton Cotman Student Watercolour Half Pans, a range of Brushes from size 2/0 to 16, and mixing pallets.
Also brand new in the gallery is Eric's painting of the new steam engine Tornado as she passes through Durham. Giclee prints of this painting are now available.
