In a fit of vanity I decided to have them framed and hang them in my bedroom for all to admire. Nash Frame Design isn't too far from where I live and they have a convenient parking lot so I decided to have them do the job. I got some very useful advice on frame and matting selection from one of the staff. I was told it would be ready in four weeks and indeed it was. They did a very nice job and it looks very nice hanging on my wall. It cost a bit more than I expected but I think it was worth it.

The selection of frames is vast - including so many that are unique. The staff is creative, knowledgeable, polite and professional. I was just in the store today having a picture framed and I witnessed a customer who was nothing short of cruel, demeaning and disrespectful to Erika, a longtime and amazing sales consultant. Erika kept her cool and couldn't have been more professional and kind to this very cruel customer. Everyone can have a bad day but this was nothing short of abusive. I give Erika kudos for handling the situation as she did and for the shop's owner for addressing the situation in a firm but fair manner. Let's all be better, people. This is a neighborhood shop that we should bend over backwards to support. It is amazing in every respect.

I end up just grabbing a pin this visit but will for sure check them out next time I need to refresh my stationary stock or need a card! They obviously do framing as well! Looked like they had a lot to offer for frame options.

Little thought was given to the consequences of crowding the aisles with product displays making the store difficult for someone with mobility challenges. I dropped a few brushes (which I did buy) and because it is difficult for me to bend that far I cried out for help several times using my announcer voice. Everyone in the store would have to hear this unless they were wearing headphones. No one responded. After waiting a bit I struggled to get the items off the ground. Finally someone came but it was too late. She stood directly in front of me preventing me from reaching the register. People in general have no awareness of disability. The employee who rang me up obviously didn't know how to have a short friendly chat. It made me feel unwelcome, as if I were disturbing her somehow. I have a long retail history and can't imagine why someone would treat a customer that way. It's unfriendly. She was capable of the simplest basics of operating a register. Unkind. Luckily I don't need to visit often.

Wowee zowee, I haven't been in a fine art store this extensive and specialized since I was…read moreliterally in college taking fine art courses and had to buy supplies from the campus store. I came here because I needed a replacement Micron 005 pen, which is a favorite among artists. I'd checked online and saw they carried them (as did Michael's, but I'm looking to vote with my dollars and spend more appropriately), but elsewise wasn't sure what to expect on my visit. I was pleasantly surprised and I am certain I will be back in the future for projects I have planned. There's stuff here that you just won't find at any big box craft store. That said, this store caters primarily to painters and drawers. This isn't a store to get kid's art supplies; it's a place for adult artists to shop. Canvases (reasonably priced) in a multitude of dimensions (some taller than I am), a staggering assortment of oil paints, paint pens, acrylic leather paint (designed to flex), a massive number of Copics, pastels/charcoal/conte crayon, Sculpey, watercolor supplies including Arches large format single sheets, huge selection of high quality spray paints, canvas sold by the yard on rollers, resin making supplies (including face masks/goggles), gloss glazes for your ceramic firing projects, mechanical pencil leads in every gauge and hardness you could desire, journals/sketchbooks, storage and easels, impulse items like stickers/greeting cards/candy towards the registers, a massive custom framing counter and a canvas stretching counter as well. The employees were all friendly and eager to help. I got asked while I was browsing if I needed any help finding anything. (I did actually need help finding the Microns but my goofy butt auto responded I was just having fun looking... which I was, but LOL I could've also used the help. I'm just so used to turning down assistance.) There's bathrooms in the back if you have need. They are gender neutral, hooray! Nothing fancy, but all functional and clean enough. The surface parking lot is a bit small (and many of the spaces are 30 minute maximum), but there's also plenty of garages nearby as well. It was pretty busy when I was there on a Friday afternoon!
