Review of Atlantis

07 Aug 07, 20:40

Art supplies heaven 4*

This is me letting you into the 'secret' every east end artist has known about for years...

Atlantis is a massive and cheap warehouse where you can buy pretty much everything the professional or amateur painter could ever need - from easels and pre-stretched canvases in all sizes plus stretchers to make up your own and every kind of paint, brush, pencil, crayon, pen, solvent and other gunk you can imagine.

They offer student discount and are pretty helpful if you can't find what you are after. Oh and the paper section is unbelievably comprehensive and very hard to resist.

It is just up behind the Bell Foundry, off Whitechapel Road. And they are open on Sundays too.

Best thing about where I live Broadway Market and Columbia Road, Victoria Park and my studio, the great transport links and that it's not as up itself as Hoxton (yet).
Worst thing about where I live The property prices are too high for mere mortals. Darn those city types and their bonuses spent on buy-to-lets.

More about me A painter into objects, words and buildings. Sensible dayjob, doing corporate words and pictures, necessitated by the scarcity of rich art patrons in this town. Pretty mad about recycling and making things grow.
