Ink

If you’ve ever wanted to dip your toes into vibrant ink illustration, now’s the perfect time to take the plunge! Inks are a joy to work with—fluid, bold, and beautifully blendable. Whether you’re a seasoned illustrator or a beginner looking to explore colour in a new way, inks are perfect for adding that extra splash of life to your work.

 

The use of Bamboo as a more sustainable option than wood  or plastic is becoming increasingly popular. Bamboo as a material is incredibly versatile and we are seeing it’s uses in everyday items such as furniture, flooring, clothing, textiles, toothbrushes, soap dishes, cutlery, and even toilet  paper! We are always looking at ways to expand our product range and are proud to supply these bamboo products here at ARTdiscount.

Not that long ago companies didn't have traceability in their own supply chains, and they were not proactive about sustainability, thankfully that is changing!  Many companies are now contributing to a healthier planet and developing eco friendly and animal cruelty free strategies to develop their products.

As International Pigment Day is upon us we have curated a list of fantastic products, expertly developed by Pebeo, these new products are not only of the highest quality, but encourage creativity on all levels, for all artists of all ages!
