Art Discount is a great place to find art supplies at reasonable prices. I bought a fantastic studio easel for only £45 and when you spend over £30 you get free shipping. www.artdiscount.co.uk
Paint My Photo is a free membership site to find great source photographs. You own the rights to your painting and are allowed to sell them; you don’t own the rights to the original photo. This site has just moved to new servers designed to provide faster service…I’m still learning how it works. www.pmp-art.com
Daily Paint Works is a fabulous website run by Carol Marine, the author of ‘Daily Painting’. The website exhibits works of many daily painters who sell their paintings. Artists have a gallery page and links to their blog, website, facebook and e-mail. I love browsing this site for inspiration and to see what artists are working on. www.dailypaintworks.com
Rosemary and Co is a great place for quality brushes. Ask most artists in the UK and they will tell you they have these brushes. I like the Ivory and Eclipse range. Delivery is free for orders over £30 and £1 for orders less than £30. These brushes are not cheap, so if you are looking for less expensive brushes try the Daler & Rowney Graduate range. I mostly use filbert and short flat or bright brushes. www.rosemaryandco.com
Society for All Artists (SAA) is a UK group you can join to get discounts on product and free shipping. When you join they also give you a welcome pack, free exhibition insurance, entry to SAA competitions, a magazine every two months and a few other benefits. I’m a new member and haven't decided if it’s worth it. But you can use the website even if you aren’t a member and find tuition listings by artist and also buy products without the member discount. www.saa.co.uk
